16 round magazine

[civic]

Greetings,
I have two 16 rd mags that I can only put 15 rounds in and two that will load 16 rds.
They all appear to be the same. I even compared the springs.
I loaded the same rounds in all but two of them will only take 15.
Anyone seen this problem?
Thanks

Yup.. Same problem. I don't worry about it. If someone breaks into my house, my shotgun gets picked up first. It only hold 5.

Yeah I have actually been debating the shoot gun first, theory.
Maybe pick one this weekend.

I can get 16 in but the last one is a bear without using my Uplula loader. Also, my mags are pretty well broken in so that may help the process.

I can get the 16th in, but it takes a lotta effort. I figure if it's that hard to get IN, I may have trouble gettin' em all OUT. So I just accept the 15.

Thanks ,
Maybe they will wear in.
They sure are hard to load.
Got a loader for Christmas maybe that will help.
Still considering the shotgun theory.
Ultimate home defense. Ha!!

I can get 16 into mine but it's not worth the extra effort for one extra round. I go with 15, works out better anyway since the ammo comes in 50 round boxes (15 at 3 yards+ 15 at 7 + 10 at 15 yards + 10 at 25 if I'm feeling confident )

got my sigma on dec 24 and today was the first day i can get the 16th in there on all the clips after leaving them loaded with 15 all the time.

New springs are tight....they'll loosen up....I carry mine everyday with 10+1.
No need for 17 I don't guess....
