    The bolt hold tab on the magazines doesn't rise enough to engage and lock the bolt back on an empty magazine. Tried it on 858 with DLask mag release and a bone stock 858 Canadian edition of a buddy`s. I'm going to try shave the top of the follower a bit and clearance the tab window to try and get things to work.

    Turns out there is enough tilt in the follower to not engage/keep tension on the magazine's bolt hold open tab. Original metal mags have a long skirt on the front of the follower to reduce tilt.

    Sometimes it is taken, sometimes it is not. But there is no bargain, for here, what is,
    is what must be
