What you need to do is to manually release the magazines and check the cartridges to see if they are being too tightly retained in their slots. Test by pushing the cartridges out of the magazine using the finger cut-out on the back side of the magazine. A tight cartridge will offer much more resistance than a normal one-- most likely due to plastic flashing around the retention indentation towards the rear of the cartridge. If a tight-fitting cartridge is found, manually load it and eject it from the magazine ten times or until it loosens. Run a 100 cycle 'Slot-to-Slot Test' to see if the problem reoccurs. If the problem is consistent then will need to replace the magazine.
