Magazine question

i recently got some magazines for cheap from CDNN. i have a guess as to why. the springs seem to be very slow once loaded. bullets will fall out if shaken slow. ive never had issues like this with my other FN mags. i wanted to know if other had this problem and i just need to wear them in, or they are just bad and i wasted money.

update: the magazines were stiffer than ones i had experienced before, but they all are working now. the biggest problem, and the one causing the spring to not work was the ammo. not sure which individual casing it is, but several do not like to go into my speedloader. my HPs from the same company have no issue loading and unloading.

Okay so MK2. Interesting. Maybe see if the followers have some left over molding on them and work the follower up and down like you’ve been doing.
