oldypigeonpopper Posted November 28, 2021 Report Share Posted November 28, 2021 Hello, the genuine HW 100 mags have a tendancy to not freely rotate as there is little tolerance between the width of mag and breach , if it's the same type of rotation set up as the 110 ? then get some Emery paper and smooth off both sides until it slides in breech and rotates freely, this is what I had to do on my 110, if there is no rotation then something must be wrong with the cocking mechanism , I bought some 3 D mags that work perfect and don't use the originals, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rangey Posted November 28, 2021 Author Report Share Posted November 28, 2021 Don't think it's the mags, you can actually see the mag axle doesn't turn when clocked. Ordered a new magazine axle and will try that first. Mags turn fine by hand so still usable.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rangey Posted November 29, 2021 Author Report Share Posted November 29, 2021 If that's the tiny spring with the ball bearing on top I've ordered that as well, not taken it apart yet, waiting for the parts to come first..

rangey Posted December 2, 2021 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2021 Thanks for the input guys... It was the Index spring. It wasn't broken but changed it anyway. Must have got weaker over time, but works fine now and easy fix Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
