I bought my E-Landers when they first arrived on shore from Israel. They are the 17 round variety and the only issue encountered is the well known "full mag rattle".
New versions of the E-lander seem to be using a stiffer spring, but I wouldn't know why that would cause binding, unless the followers were tipping.
If you haven't already, try both methods of loading up the magazine: 1) where you slide each round in over the feed lip and 2) by pressing each round down into the magazine directly over the follower, in a fashion similar to how stripper clips load a 5.56 magazine (just one at a time).
I feel that method 2 would be less susceptible to cause follower tipping, which could result in the binding you're experiencing.

If it's true that we are here to help others, then what exactly are the others here for?
