Take the mag by the top, like a riding crop, and slap/flick the base of the mag into your palm towards the direction the baseplate need to move. The tab will click into place.

I tried that it starts to more but only a little then won't move anymore. I tried pushing it down with a punch but doesn't seem to work. I have the two factory mags with the same issue. Any other thoughts or ideas I would greatly appreciate it.

Instead of slapping the mag against your hand try a 2 X 4. Some of them are very stubborn.

Thank you. I haven't taken mine apart but it's good info to know.
Note to self; mag base plate can go on backwards and ruin a lovely day.
