S200T - Mag issue

[jamie1]

One problem I am having is the mag is not popping out after 10 shots which I believe it should do.

Consequently, I sometimes forget to remove the mag at the right place and have to cycle through again (cock and re-cock) which I don't really like doing.

Any ideas anyone?

Count.

It's what I have to do with mine!

You don't need to recock, you can spin it by hand (with the bolt pulled back).

Thanks matey!

Any idea why the [indexing] doesn't work?

[LagomorphHunter]

Indexing does work, and if you watch closely, the mag does lean out. But, it whacks back in when you close the bolt. That's the dangerous moment when you can cut the O ring too if you are a bit quick!

Do it slowly and gently and you'll see what I mean.

Thanks again LagomorphHunter.

I know it's a bit late on this thread. A little tip for anyone with the S200 magazine, you will see a longer cut out groove on the magazine is. Paint this longer groove with some bright coloured paint (mines bright Red), you will then know at a glance when the magazine only has one shot left, it also helps when re-inserting the magazine. By the way the magazine is not designed to pop out when empty, you just can't push the bolt forward, you could possibly damage the seals if you do force it. If the magazine popped out, there is a chance it would get muddy or even that you could loose it

I was aware of the longer groove, but the paint idea is a good one.

I wasn't expecting the mag to fly out onto the floor(!), just pop out half an inch, but I may have got this wrong.

Anyway, all answers and tips very welcome - thank you.
