Some surefire 12 round mags have broken with 3" magnum rounds. So have some AGPs. The izzy 5 & 8 round mags seem to be the best for 3" mag ammo.

 

Although, I have put 30 rounds of 3" magnum win 1 buck through one of my agps without a problem.

Also, surefire admits that their 12 rounder's spring lacks the power to lift a full load of 3" shells. Their best for light loads.

 

The later gen AGPs work great for me with 3" mag loads after I tuned them up nice. (sanded the inside with 240 grit & stretched the spring a touch to match the pressure the Russian mags deliver)

 

The front tab issue has been addressed by surefire & AGP. Promag has neglected to fix it on theirs, but their stick mags suck ass anyhow, so no big loss.

 

Look at the pick below.

You can see the change on my 2 old surefires. One has the current wider front tab, the other has the narrow tab.

The narrow tab is problematic.

I had a problem today at the range my Russian 5 rounder will not feed correctly Remington Magnum 3" Express 00 Buckshot. The first round and sometimes the second will feed but Round 3 or 4 is getting stuck low in the mag.I had to really tap the mag a bit to get things back out.Unfortunately I did not bring my AGP mags to see if the same issue is evident.Any Ideas on improving the feed?

Lightly sand (sandpaper) where the shells are hanging up, check, sand more if needed.
