From how the instructions are worded it seems like it should all just slide out... Am I doing something wrong or is this all derped up? Oh, and thanks for the quick, helpful responses guys. Awesome community.

    Sounds like a Korean magazine, Pull the follower and rollers and remove and plastic flash from all the parts. If the rollers still stick you may have to shorten them a tad with some fine sand paper.

    Ok... any tips to remove the follower? It doesn't want to budge at all.

    Put the mag back together and put rounds in it until the follower gets past the area it is sticking then disassemble... Or ... give that spring a really good tug!
    Take some fine grit sandpaper to the back of the follower (the biggest side) until it moves through the mag body freely.

    Is it a 30 round mag? A couple of guys have had the same problem with factory 30 round mags.

    If you are having this much problems with the magazine, go to MidwayUSA and spend $24.00 for a new one.

    FNH Mag FN P90 PS90 5.7x28mm FN 50-Round Polymer

    And pictures are still worth a thousand words......


    A pure democracy operates by direct majority vote of the people. When an issue is to be decided, the entire population votes on it; the majority wins and rules. A republic differs in that the general population elects representatives who then pass laws to govern the nation.

    Ok, sorry it took so long to post photos. I got the follower out of the mag by loading three rounds. This took a completely unreasonable amount of force to do. The follower starts to stick when it gets right behind the embossed 5.7x28 round on the bottom of the magazine. The follower and rollers don't look like they have any flash that would impede their movement and the follower will travel through 80% of the magazine body without any resistance. Yes, it is a 30-round magazine. Can someone confirm that this is a FN magazine from the pictures? Everything was supposed to be new in box. Oh and sorry about the pictures, only have the camera on my phone.

    Step one. Place fine grit sandpaper on table or other flat surface.
    Step two. Sand the side of follower against the table in photo (or side opposite it) until it moves freely through body.
    Step three. Profit

    I imagine it's a factory mag. The 30 round that came with mine was the same way.

    Ok, so I sanded the follower down and it now slides unimpeded through the magazine. Loading the first few rounds is now much easier. I also got a 2nd magazine in and am going to go test both tonight to see if that was my problem. I'll post when I know for sure but I expect you all solved my problem. Thanks again guys.
