| Hey guys. I brought a couple CProducts 10 round mags to the range today and something seems iffy with one of them. It is super tight in the receiver and I have to pull it pretty damn hard to get it out. I bought two of them, and the other one is fine, falls freely and fits right. I tried it in a few other lowers and it's the same shit. Is this just how it is when you have to buy the shitty 10 rounders? Has anybody had similar problems with their stuff? |

I've had that problem with used magazines (all my magazines are used). My buddy showed me once what he does. He steps on them, gently but he steps on them.  Contact Larry he'll swap you a new magazine |

I use CProd mags exclusively. No 10 rnd ones but 20 and 30 and I have not one, single solitary problem with any of them. Quoted:
Since yours are good all the other defects don't count? if anyone has issues with one, contact CProd and they'll fix it. A+ company IMHO. I don't think I've read a story where someone had an issue that wasn't taken care of. |

Have the exact same issue with one I picked up today, on another one I bought the front of the mag was too tall and the tips of the rounds were hitting the mag body and not stripping out of the mag. Nothing a file couldnt fix. Sounds like theyll take care of this one for me, this makes 2 of 10 C Products mags Ive had problems with

Get em fixed Instructions: Step 1. throw them in trash can, step 2. Buy another brand (such as NHMTG) that works, becarefull I once bought some ar stoners (cproducts makes them) Its not worth the halse to mail off a few mags that don't work and you may mail them more than once. Go to 44mag and get D&H or NHMTG.

| There is no one in the industry who will do you right like Larry. He will swap you untill you have perfect mags. I have 6 CProducts SS in my ready to go bag, they all work flawlessly with numerous loadings. The only change I made to these was a Ranger plate so I can grab quickly. |

Does he cover the "swapping" postage. |
| Last night i took 2 of my older cproducts mags (20 rndrs) i got this last july and bent the feed lips up a little so the 308 rounds would angle slightly up. They were hitting low on my feed ramp. We'll see if that works... i got 2 new cproducts 20rnd from POF that they say worked and i have 2 old ones that fed questionably into the chamber. I also have 2 pmags and a dpms 20 rnd that i haven't tried yet either. Trying the whole rifle out, again, in a couple weeks. It's cold and there's no where to shoot here in Mpls for cheap. |

I got a single c-products mag with my AR, a 30 round mag pinned to 5 to satisfy the stupid rifle magazine limitation laws here in Canada. I have never been able to shoot 5 rounds out of it without it miss-feeding a round resulting in the bullet being pushed back into the case. I have a mixture of Brownels and RRA mags (5/30's and 10 round LAR Pistol Mags) and all of them function flawlessly.
The c-products mag seats fine, is spotlessly clean inside (because its never used), it just dont want to feed rounds. I always assumed it was because the mag follower was different than all my other mags. The followers in those have a semi-curcular offset on the top, whilst the c-products mag is squarer (if that makes sense). EDIT: Ignore the above comment, just looked at my RRA mags and the followers in these have the squarer follower, although the profile and cut-outs are different) END EDIT: The problem up here is that to change the follower (or clean the mag properly) you would have to remove the pins or punch cuts that restrict the mags to 5 rounds, and that would be illegal!  Bummer
