hey Skip, I fixed my prodigy mags by lightly sanding with 1000 grit sandpaper the inside feed lips of the mags and then polishing that area. I found the issue as I ordered a couple Atlas Gunworks Mags and it ran flawless with those but kept hanging up on the SA/Duramag mags. After sanding and polishing it runs perfect with those now too.

Interesting to see someone that shoots both eyes open looing like he has the same issue as I do. Everytime I shoot 25 yards and beyond with irons I notice my front sight flopping left and right. On top of that the impacts tend to drift left. I figured out why because I was mentally switching between eyes to see the target and the front sight. What makes things worse is even when I force my left eye to shut I am still doing it because I am mentally traying to look at the target with my left eye that is closed because I know it is there. I am wondering if this is a byproduct of using an ACOG for CQB?

That is a fact. My 17 had burrs on the inside. My 20 was good. But, I did a little sanding with 1000 grit wet and dry sandpaper and finished it with a little flitz to polish it all. You can tell the difference because the ammunition doesn't get hung up. The other option I went with was buying the Staccato 17 round magazine because I wanted 3 mags anyway. Skip has my Prodigy now and with his prices, you will end up with a great gun that can compete with a Staccato. He knows his shit guys and gals.
