I've had this VZ 2008 for a few years but haven't shot it in a while. I recently took it out of the safe, lubed it up, and went to the range. It shot fine when I first got it. The problem I'm having now is it will chamber the first round but will not chamber the second round. I tried 4 different mags to no avail. It will only feed from the right side of the mag, not the left. The round binds up as it's entering the chamber.

Anybody else ran into this problem? I searched everywhere on google but no luck.

After tinkering with it all day I finally got it figured out. There are two small tabs on the bottom of the bolt that pick up the rounds from the mag. One of the tabs was broke off, hence it only picked up rounds from one side of the mag. Didn't catch it because I thought that was the way it was supposed to look.

Anyway, hope this helps someone else with the same problem.
