IIRC, the topic was more focused on detachable magazines where the gunsmith would adjust the feedlips on a magazine or two but the customer would then try different magazines and have issues. Or the feedlips on the modified magazines would get tweaked and no longer feed. Might not be an issue with an internal magazine.
