Default Magazine rivet legality

Anyone know the legalities of relocating a river on a magazine?

I have 2 m14 mags that are pinned a little too high for me to insert them when the bolt is closed.

Am I legally able to relocate the river or do I need to take it to a gunsmith or something?

Thanks

Fixing the river location was super easy, the only issue I have that I mentioned is filling the hole so nothing gets inside. Any recommendations?
