There is only two POSSIBLE causes for why that magazine isn't working properly.
1). The magazine catch is not compatible with the Marui mag and can't seat the Marui mag properly.
2). The valve knocker (the firing pin) does not have enough clearance to hit the MARUI magazine blowoff valve efficiently, resulting in the symptoms you've described. This is caused by the difference in height that Marui mag has VS the KJW mag. In this case, the Marui mag Valve probably sits higher than the KJW mag valve. Thus, the strike face of the firing pin can't make the proper contact point on the Marui system. It probably slips around valve or something.
3). The hammer spring is not strong enough. This not a likely conclusion but it may help point you on where to look.
It could be a possibility that both are happening at the same time. But since you say that the magazine is works only when you apply force during insertion, I would assume that the magazine catch is not seating the magazine properly.
I don't have the gun in front of me to see what's going with it. So I could be wrong entirely which is why I won't recommend a fix for you. Inspect your gun first....

I have ordered many upgrades for my pistol and one of this is the Guarder steel magazine catch, I hope this solve the issue
