I had a type 38 carbine that fed better when I put 4 rounds in the magazine. If it put in 5 it was tough to close the bolt over the 5th round. I'm not sure if the carbine well is smaller than the full sized rifle well (never owned other than the carbine) but maybe they normally loaded the 5th round?
That wandering aside: you might play a bit with the z-shaped leaf spring that is pushing the magazine plate upwards. Maybe it's bent a bit?
