Intratec cat 9 not loading?

[Winchest55]

I have an intratec cat 9 and it will not even load the first shell without jamming. anyone know anything about these? Could it be the clip?

What types of ammo you using? Also, is the magazine lips bent?

 

[Winchest55]

Yes the magazine lips do seem to be bent. I tried everything like winchester,remington,Magtec,fiocchi.

Wow, yea, must be that mag. Also check the feed ramp. Another suggestion would be to chamber it, and unchamber it and examin the bullet to check for nicks and scratches beyond the normal ejector/loading marks. I had read of such problems on another forum and these were the suggestions that were given. Just passing them along.

Thanks for the info. I think I might try a new magazine if I can find one for this gun. If that does not work I will try the other suggestions.

If you remember or can find a picture of a working Mag, you can possibly bent it back in shape. If you do so, the metal will be weakened and over time will possibly fail again. A good "quick" fix until you get a new one though. I'm sure someone here will chime in with better ideas though.... LOL

The only thing I am worried about is even if I get a new one that there is something wrong with the gun and it will just bend the new one also.
