I'm about to give up on this sticky follower flatback. I feel like I have opened it up as much as I can without distorting it and the damn follower keeps binding up something awful. I knew I should have kept one of those Tapco followers and springs as a tester.

How do you open it up? I have not seen a sticky mag I could not fix.
Will you take $10 shipped for it?
Serious offer.

I think that'll be the next step. It's a nice looking mag, so it'd be a shame for it to serve only as a paperweight

I usually use a pry bar. The shipping for stuff over a pound is $8, so that is actually worse than @Rabbit2047 's tree fiddy offer :classictongue:
Probably franken-mag it up next

$15 shipped? Do not use the pry bar. There are better ways, if you do not have a mandrel.
