HELP!!!!!! mags won't feed
 
So i bought the box of 10 e-mags, the green lable versions, and they don't feed right, so i sprayed some lube in them and now they are even worse. First, they aren't the problems with the feeding lip, it is something else. Even though these are suppose to be single stack mags(i know, all mid caps for aegs are single stacks) but the bbs go off and double stack, and then the follower also seems to get jammed inside the mag. Any ideas of what is going on? Because i can hold open the feeding lip, and yet no bbs shoot up in my eye. :banghead::banghead:

I really wish threads to have more exact name than just HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And as mentioned, don't buy green label, it means "shitty" in magpul language.

Well depending on what type of lube you used and how much you might want to go about removing it. And I had to work mine in before they would feed half consistantly. Fill em and empty em over and over till they are worked in. There are little un even and out of shape parts on your follower that need to be smoothed out. If you can't find a way to take em apart and not break them have at er.
Man im glad people mentioned not to buy green labels, that must really help with the feeding issues.

Frankly I would "fix" it by selling them to some idiot who won't complain to you later and buy myself normal ones.

I know, your wallet will cry, but it really isn't worth having unreliable mags.

If you want to keep them, well, the plan "take apart-clean-fun with smoothing iron" can, hopefully, help.

This ^, Also if you have one of those stick type 30 round speed loaders or something that fits down the mag some way you can use that to push a handful of bb's back and forth inside it.

Bought green labels, lubed em up willy, worked em in and out a bunch, now they all work great. Still sound advice not to cheap out and buy them in the firstplace though.

My experience is the same as above. Bought the green box mags, lubed them up, and now they kind of work (with fixes for fitment issues), but I won't be buying them ever again. Possibly the biggest problem with the green box mags is that you can't easily disassemble them to fix them after you've realized that they suck.
