Street Judge 0 Posted May 1, 2011 Report Share Posted May 1, 2011 I have a s12 5rd mag that I took to the range the other day. The mag will not lock into the receiver at the rear of the mag on the mag release. The tab on the back of the mag seems to me too big or possibly misshaped. Has anyone here had that type of problem? if so how did you fix it? The mag is a factory 5 round 12 gauge mag. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
schultze13 354 Posted May 1, 2011 Report Share Posted May 1, 2011 This is the first I have heard of that problem usually factory 5rd'ers lock right up. Do you have another saiga to compare it to weather it is the mag locking lug or the mag catch. Is it locking on a empty mag and not a full mag or is it not locking all the the time. If you can post some pics and I will compare it to one of my guns and try to see if there is something different. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Street Judge 0 Posted May 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2011 Turns out the top of the rear locking long was slightly too long from the front to back. I took off a little material and now it locks in just fine, Now all I have to do is test it at the range. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
