question on FAL magazine

[Rockandroll]

I have a Fn-Fal in inch pattern. The mags I bought years ago are metric. My question is: Can one open up the lips of a metrics mag so it locks up better. Thanks

Generally the "beak" on metric doesn't seem to be required.
I've seen/had a number of metric mags which the "beak" could not serve any purpose, but they locked in and function.
