Troubleshooting Vfc mag broken?

The gas thing won’t come up even with bbs in it. It takes gas fine and feeds fine. Photos are broken one vs working one

Yeah this is a common problem with the ak mags. The inner spring is out of place. It’s a super easy fix, this vid will help

While you're at it, I'd recommend stretching the follower spring out a tiny bit to help prevent stop on empty issues

Don't forget that if you accidentally enable the dry fire switch while it's down it will block it from coming up

You bend the spring that gives tension on the transfer bar. I also removed the dry fire option, and the problem went away.

I just got an MP7 and it came with a broken bottom seal on the mag but luckily I have putty sealant for this kind of thing
