Norinko SKS Initial Round Feed

[Phantom]

Has anyone out there had a problem with their SKS refusing to smoothly chamber that first manually chambered round into the barrel ? My first round is difficult to chamber. It gets cocked half in & half out. I think it has something to do with the magazines that came with the gun. But after I do get that first round in and shot off, - she autos perfectly there after until the mag is empty. .............???.......? ? Any comments ? Help ?

I was at the gun shop and heard this very conversation.
It is as stated the Mag

Either get the Tapco plastic 20rd mags (Im assuming you have moded it to take detachables)
or
dig out a 10rd fixed mag and make the lips on the mag that wont feed the same length (some of the metal ones are to long)
or
use a dremel to shave down the bottom 1/4 of the area where it is getting jammed to make a smoother feed ramp, these were designed to shoot FMJ not HP rounds.
Hope this helps.
