Cannot get magazine to rotate in aa s310 action.

[WILBA]

Hi guys. After my transplant of a s310 top part action on to my s300 i cannot get the magazine i bought to rotate. The cam is working when you pull the bolt back and rising the springy thing that rotates the mag up with no magazine in the gun. But as soon i pull the bolt back and push the mag in to place the brass spring that rotates the mag stay at the top so mag will not rotate. Either the mag i ordered off ramsbottom bottom is not for this gun as stated or i am missing something. Its been 15yrs since i had my proper s310 so maybe i am doing something wrong? I dont thing its the mag as ramsbottom said it is for 310/410/510 and the new bullpup. Help please. Regards. Chris

i'm almost sure the mags are the same in all AA's repeaters, I'd try borrowing a mag off someone to try before returning it.I think jr must have forgotten more about airgun parts compatability than most of us will ever know. i had an s300 & it was one of the most accurate pcps i've had. i never had to touch it apart from a new breech seal when I first got it, so reliable.

I do not think its the mag either but i am missing something i think but cannot put my finger on it. Its been a long time since i had an 310.

I have had some interesting problems in this area. The mag should be ok . The indexing arm could be at fault, in my case the cam plate needed to be the changed and also adjusted to fit correctly. If your stuck let me know I could take a look and substitute some parts to try

Thanks pj. I think i will order a new magazine post first and see if that fixes the problem. This is the first time i have tried tinkering with a pcp and i suppose part of the learning curve. Sorry if i am bothering you guys to much for info. Just a bit lost at the moment. Lets see if the pot fixes the problem. Regards. Chris

Check the springy thing that rotates the mag isn't loose mate, they are held by a small bolt you will need a
Small precision screwdriver to tighten it and I would add a tiny drop of locktite. I had this twice on s410s the indexing arm moves without a mag in but if its slightly loose the play in the arm prevents it indexing. s410 mags work fine in the 310 they are all interchangeable I have 2 mags that work fine in all my air arms pcps. Hope that helps bud.
