I finally had the chance to test my Mini-14 (plain blue) with some aftermarket mags (2 20-rounders from CheaperThanDirt and 2 30-rounders from PMI).
They all worked fine (even the one PMI 30-rounder that does not have a lock hole in the front top portion of the mag).
However, occassionally, when I release the mags (which do not drop free), the bolt slammed shut upon taking the mags out.
Would this be a problem, mechanically or tactically?
