I just got my 7.62x39 kit but so far the only issues I had were more related to break-in of the gun.  As I get more rounds through it I will report back.

Well, I beg to differ about the springs.  I know others have had success, but I had the springs in my first set of mags and it only helped a little.  I was having 1-2 jams per mag instead of 3-4.  I will be trying to smooth the inner and outer curves some how and doing a bit of tapping with the ole hammer.  I know they are the only company building them right now but like I said that being the case they should be making sure they are 100% before they go out and charging a premium for them.  Maybe I will suggest they offer such a service.  $20 for a crap shoot or $40 for a guaranteed/tested version.

If you look at the spine of the mags there seem to be a lot of wrinkles in between the spot welds.  Obviously if that's wrinkled on the inside it could affect how the follower moves, regardless of what springs you have in it.
