Magazine cleaning/inspection
Posted: Sun Oct 03, 2010 1:20 pm
on one of my XD9sc extended magazines, when I load the magazine, the spring does not always expand back out to keep up pressure on the rounds.
So at times during loading, the rounds may fall back out and other times, when using the magazine there is not enough tension on the rounds that once you fire a round, it will eject, but will not fully insert a new round ready to fire.
So my thoughts are, either the spring is bad (or not straight (if that is even possible)) or the magazine is dirty and needs cleaned inside.
So, does anyone know how to inspect a magazine? how to disassemble it and if so, what to look for once it is apart?
thanks
