old colt tactical carbine magazine seating problem
Hi folks got a question sorry if this was addressed have a used colt tactical 6721 H bar carbine i bought usedr since i bought it I have to force the magazine to seat properlyi pretty much have to push up into the mag well until seats In other words I place the magazine in the mag well then have to push it a second time makd it lock in place unlike my other newer ARs where I can seat the magazine with one push pull.Keep in mind it happens with USGI and Magpul mags and they are loaded to 28 rds I am seating with the bolt closed. I even replaced the magazine catch but still no luck once its seated it stays in place and have malfunctions but its annoying. Anyone have any suggestions?

Does the magazine still stick if you insert it with the upper receiver removed?

Does the trigger guard stick into the magazine well at all?

NO but I just noticed while putting in the mag It can seat if I slam it in hard However I dont have to with my newer 6920

Is it a standard mag catch? '
Is the end of the shaft of the mag catch flush with the mag release button?
Push in the magazine release far enough to rotate the catch out of its slot and rotate it slightly out of its slot. Does the magazine still stick?

It just seems like its unnatural for me to have to force it
