AR-9 9mm PCC C Products Colt Style Magazine Problem and Fix

Helpful video.

FWIW... the Metalform brand mags tend to come with some kinda "sticky" preservative inside the mag body, and on the follower and spring.

Cleaning that out helps greatly for reliable feeding. I use a rag and car wax / cleaner ( TR3 , amazon )

The coating Brownells uses ( Xylan ) avoids that issue.

And you should ( just a suggestion ) do a brief video on loading the Metalform mags showing how to load them via the banging the mags base on a table top , when pushing the round in to the mag.

Sure makes fitting those last few rounds easier to load.

*Hold on to your AR-15s. Their magic must be very powerful, or they wouldn’t want them.*
JAFOM.... Just another fat old man.

This fix isn't about getting your magazines to feed better. It's about getting the C Products model to actually seat correctly.

As for loading, I use a Maglula
