Are you sure you've installed your hammer spring correctly? It just sounds like a hammer spring issue whereby it's not producing a strong strike.
Again, I don't know how your gun is working. Nor do I have to inspect. So I don't know if modding your new SD valve knocker will work.
If you still want to modify the knocker valve, just make sure that it has enough room to move in order to line up with the magazine valve. If it's too long, it can "slip" around the magazine valve during the hit on the valve and only produce a minor strike. One way to spot this is if your magazine can't free drop. Instead, the valve knocker will hang onto the magazine itself.
But be very careful NOT to take too much off. If you do, the knocker won't be long enough to efficiently press the magazine valve and you'll get the same lightstriking effect. You have to keep testing and refitting...
The only solace that I can give you is that since the stock magazine with the stock valve knocker works fine, I think you should stick to that. It's the only thing that works best for you. It's clear that your Marui magazine is not compatible with your KJW system.
