AK Not Feeding

This has to happen just before Border Wars....

After installing my new Pro-Win hop-up into my AK, I have found that it will not feed BBs into the inner barrel. They feed into the chute, but no further. When installing the hop-up I did make a bit of an error. I didn't see that the unit slipped over the forward screw of the mechbox. The cage that would have slipped into place got mashed a bit. After some dremel work, it fit fine without. So here is what I've got as to why it may not be feeding:

1) Warped the hop-up unit trying to jam it in place.
2) Not enough material dremeled out, hop-up is sitting at an angle in relation to the mechbox and nozzle.
3) Pro-Win unit is not compatible with stock tappet plate.
4) Gun is FUBAR, time to sell it. God I hope not....

Anyway, any information and/or reassurance is appreciated. Thanks folks.
