Re: Magazine question
Just took the gun out and ran a full mag through with each mag and had no failures in feeding at all. seemed to operate normally in that aspect. I did drop the mags about halfway through and all but 1 (the one I didn't take apart) had pushed the top round forward a bit.
Is that normal? i don't recall that happening before. am i worrying too much about this part? if the gun operates fine under normal firing conditions, should i not worry?
I'll most likely see my uncle over labor day and he's a gunsmith so maybe I'll ask him about it then too, just to make sure.

Re: Magazine question
Yes, you're worrying too much!
Knowing what I do, now, my only suggestion is to use those magazines and allow the springs to take a, 'set'. Why not leave them loaded for a week, or two? I really don't think that you need to do anything else.
The top round is catching the pickup rail and sliding slightly forward because the magazine spring is holding it tightly in place during recoil. (Which can be a good thing!) Slightly increasing the angle of the top coil in the magazine spring might help to alleviate this condition; but, personally, I'd leave it alone and just use those mags for awhile.
(My own Glocks have a tendency to do this, too; and they are, otherwise, flawless through thousands and thousands of rounds!)
