Followup on failure to feed

Followup on failure to feed

Did more testing with the stribog today. 33 rounders just have a problem where they'll push the round straight into the feed ramp and push the bullet back into the case. It happened even as low as 25 rounds in the mag but it's most common at the top 3 rounds. Oddly enough, the 28 round PMAGS functioned flawlessly. Started full, emptied them, reloaded them, emptied them just to be extra sure. All of these mags have been flawless in my handgun, even the 33s. This was shooting suppressed, so I tried a little unsuppressed before I had to leave. First 10 rounds off the top of a fully loaded 33, did that 3 times and only had one failure to feed problem. It makes me think there's some weird bolt bounce problem that's only evident on the 33s? Or maybe the 33s have some kind of problem with follower orientation when fully loaded? Should I try higher strength springs in them? Global Ordnance said to ship it in for service but I'm wondering if anyone else has found there own solution. Shooting Fiocchi 124 grain FMJ and it has a 40 degree locking block.

I've been having trouble with the 33rd stick mags for my SP9A3G. When they're fully loaded, there are good odds that the first round and maybe the two after it will fail to feed into the chamber. They just get pushed into battery by the recoil spring but, rather than tipping up the feed ramp, they'll just plow straight into it and push the bullet deeper into the case. This has been all the 33rd magazines, glock oem and the off brand ones it came with. Has anyone else encountered this? If so, what was your solution? Sorry I don't have a picture.
