What is the easiest way to get these magazines off and on? Took mine off to paint the barrel and action, had to squeeze the heck out of it to get it back in the slots. Now it will not feed properly. I considered slightly trimming the tabs shorter till it went in.
You probably 'bowed" the sides of the mag outward when you removed it and have to squeeze them back together. Its best if you use a square on the rear and/or front ends of the mag to get the sides square otherwise it could be bowed, one side in, the other out end to end.
Don't trim the tabs! To reinstall them I set the rear tab in first then use a screwdriver in the corner of front tab at a 45 angle then thump it back and down.
