I searched and nothing came up in the forums. I have an A17 and it seems to struggle with picking up the next round out of the magazine for the first 2 or 3 shots. Then it runs fine. There is some wear on the top of the magazine so it appears the bolt is dragging across the top of the magazine. I would think if it is dragging that it would never work but the last five in mag have cycled flawless. I cleaned it then ran about 100 rounds through it then I disassembled and cleaned and maybe ran 50 rounds through it and almost every mag failed to strip the 2 or 3 round. Is it short stroking? Too much pressure from the next round until a couple are gone? Mainly using A17 ammo. I have tried some others with no more or less success. Gun shoots pretty well and besides for this issue I'm happy with it.
