Fix my gun SKS Jamming

Wondering if anyone has this same issue.

I have the Bad Ace scope mount and I’m using the Archangel mags. It’s done this basically for as long as I’ve had the optics mount so im assuming that’s my issue. If anyone else has had this issue I’d appreciate some help on how to resolve it.

I had similar with the same magazine, it would do it on my final round.

What was happening was the lips of the magazine were being forced apart by the pressure of the spring and follower and when it was only the final round it would pop out. Weirdly enough taking the spring out, and putting it in spun around 180 degrees fixed it. No idea why... 

What would really make these mags work better is if the lips of them were metal, like any quality P-Mag, there's a reason in the army we moved from plastic mags with plastic feed lips to metal, or half and half mags.
