DB Alloy Feed Issues (self.help)

submitted 1 month ago by DinnerEnjoyer to c/help

Hey All,

Went to the range the other day to finally test my DB Alloy build. Before I ever got to the shooting phase, I had issues with the printed Sten mags, so I decided to buy a few surplus mags from Atlantic Firearms. So I got my mags, polished them up, put a little lube around the follower and what not. The mags work fine outside the gun itself.

Got to the range, loaded up my mags, and when I pulled the charging handle, it seems like it is double feeding. The bolt charges two bullets instead of the one. Whatever, tried another mag, same thing. I'm thinking this is on the mags.

Any suggestions?

I had this same issue and haven’t figured it out. I’m thinking of maybe modifying the tab to have the mags sit a hair deeper into the lower. What upper are you using? I’m using the left side charging Masterpiece arms upper.
