I recently got a 10 round Archangel Mosin mag, and decided to function check it. Well, it loads fine, and it unloads a little too well. Locked it in place with a closed bolt, you can hear the top round move up, which is normal, but then when you open the bolt, the whole mag empties and there's a little 7.62 geyser out the top of the receiver. The 5 round mag that came with the stock is doing it too. I haven't fired it much, but I don't remember having any issues with it before.

Any ideas?

yup yup, Take the mag apart, work the spring abit, Oil everything, and reasemble, Should be noticbly better. If that dont work call high caliber, They are the archangels servicer in canada. Oh, And make your your bolts Closed when you load the magazines

Not a magazine problem after all.

Took the rifle out of the stock and found the ejector/interrupter spring broken. Marstar is out of stock, an american website wants to charge me 40 dollars for shipping, and another's website flashes some kind of message when I try to check out, but it is there so briefly I can't see what it is. Anyone know of any other Canadian vendors that stock these?

There is a one piece ejector/interrupter for sale on ebay, anyone know if this could be used to replace my two piece?
