Two different magazines?

Hey everyone, I recently picked up a 1968 p64 from my local firearms store and gotta say im surprisingly satisfied :D . The gun came with two mags, but right off the bat one did not function the same as the other(jammed every time.) Then got to comparing them and noticed a slight difference in the feeding lip or whatever it's called of the mag that was not working. So im guessing I accidentally got one from the years 71-74. So the question is, is there any way to customize the newer mag to work, or is the only option is to buy another first gen one? Trades are welcomed. :D

Hopefully you found an answer to your question. I ran across the answer while looking for something else. Someone showed how you would modify the later mag to make it work. If you look at the two mags you should be able to see the difference.
