Sounds like you are just pushing the mag up past the latch.  It's not designed to prevent much more than overinsertion.  It may be your magwell is long front to rear , and the mag is tipping. Try a piece of shim stock in front of the mag, see if that helps.

Your rounds crashing into the feed ramp? If so , mag is high in back , low in front.  Have you tried an Inch pattern mag?  They have that ugly big tooth on the front, might take out the slop.

Just curious - Why are you holding the magazine?

If anything goes wrong, that's one spot  where you DON'T want your hand!

Saw pics of a CETME that blew out a mag, video of an M16 at KCR that vaporized the upper, and helped a guy find the parts for his BAR mag , after he had an out-of-battery misfire at Knob Creek -- all of which seemed to prove that having body parts near the magazine is a bad idea, at any time other than combat conditions.

Just my opinion , been shooting for 30+ years.
