Neways, I fixed the magazine.. apparently the gas valve I got was defected since it didnt seal properly so I used another one and it works! However, when i inserted the magazine and fired, nothing happened. Here are some of the symptoms I observed:

1. when the magazine was taken out, the knocker was still retracted and didnt go forward. It seemed like something was preventing the knocker from going forward. The knocker is able to strike forward when I pull the trigger WITHOUT a magazine in the magwell.. Ive tried to sand the curve on the magazine that surrounds the valve, but that didnt help.

2. when I try to pull the charging handle, there seems to be alot of resistance and I had to pull harder for the charging handle to go back after the knocker is retracted.

3. when i loosened up the front body pin, the knocker immediately slammed forward

It seems like there is alot of pressure built up somewhere inside.. I havent upgraded any of the internals.. I only z0ng'd my magazine.. Any suggestions?
