Cmag not loading with M4 metal body????

Hey Guys,

I tried to find this topic on here to avoid wasting time, no luck...

I just installed my G&P metal body and now my Hero arms cmag does not even fire:smack:

Ps. The gun worked fine with the plastic body
Pps. The gun fires with a normal high or mid-cap mag....

Please help, have a game in 7 days

Not an uncommon problem. There are many guns that will not work with different c-mags. ICS has trouble with many, and some G&P as well. The problem is fit. Some mags don't fully seat with the body and the feed nozzle on the hop-up doesn't mate with the mag.

Sometimes pushing up on the mag is enough to force a proper fit, sometimes not. You can try to alter the lock tabs on the mag by building down on the top of the indent with JB Weld or similar epoxy, but it will take some trial and error to get it just right.
