help with my new mag?
« on: July 26, 2009, 04:41:53 AM »
Hey all,

Just got a new Phantom and 5 factory mags (the new type with the thick base). 1 of them is giving me trouble.

4 of them disassmbled perfectly as per the manual (press the spring through the hole in the base and slide it off) but the 5th base wont move, no matter how much force I use.

The mag is very dirty and really needs a cleaning.

Suggestions?

fixed it,

the mag was so clogged with sand from dropping it at the range that I needed my brother to bash it with a hammer while I held the spring down  ;D

hope this helps someone else with the same problem later

Actually, the best way to resolve this problem is for you to to bash it with a hammer while your brother holds the spring down.
