Pretty good reply Gooseman. I can only add a few things to check out:

-is the rubber seal at top of the mag torn? The hole should be obround (rectangular with semicircular ends). If it's kind of shaped like a "T" with a rectangular section removed towards the rear of the mag, then your seal is damaged (pretty common)

-light strike diagnosis: try putting the mag into the fridge for 5-10min. If your gun recoils consistently with a cold mag, but not with a warm one, you have a light striking issue

-stuck nozzle: take the slide off and pull the nozzle forward. Inspect the oring plunger mounted to the slide. Sometimes these get swollen and they bind in the nozzle. For detailled dissassembly you can watch my flow restrictor installation video online:

Look at your nozzle and compare it against the one in my video. It'll give you an idea if it's super worn.
