At this point I'm pretty satisfied with calling this a mag problem... I did end up trying the CProducts 30-rd mags and they actually will lock 90% of the time now as well, but it is noticeably stiffer, and as implied by that "90%", there are still some instances where it just won't lock.
As for the 20-rd CProducts mags, it's a lost cause trying to get them to seat EVER when loaded to anything more than about 12 rds, unless you really squash them in there with all your might.
The good news is I contacted the seller and they have offered to exchange them for me, I think I will ask them to be replaced with a batch of D&H.
