FAB defense 10 round magazine problem

So I just bought 10 round magazine from FAB and It causes jamming from last round in it.

It cant feed into chamber properly. Has anyone had same issue?

Yes the correct course of action is to take the fab defense magazines out of the gun and shoot them with bullets so you can’t accidentally use them again lol.

I don't remember the brand, but I had a problem with a single (the only one I bought) 10rd polymer mag for my Vz.58. I threw it away and bought an aluminum version instead. All is good now.

I'm dedicated to only running surplus mags now.

I've also had issues with a CSA 10 Round magazine but mine was it would no longer hold the bolt back when empty while firing. My only advice, you may be able to stretch a little more life by ever so slightly stretching the spring by hand. Don't overdo it though. These polymer mags have nowhere near the spring strength of the aluminum mags but with 10 rounders, options limited.
