THE IMAGE ABOVE IS A PAID ADVERTISEMENT
I just got my hands on 5 bulgy circle 10 762 mags. 4 of them lock in well, but when releasing them I have to wiggle them to the side very hard to get them outta there. One of the 5 mags does not click into place and can be smacked back out of the magwell. Seems like some work with an Emory cloth would work, but where should I polish them?

These are metal, not polymer?
What gun are you using that they tight in?

They are the regular circle 10 polymer mags. The receiver used is a firing line milled. Same deal I my arsenal milled with these mags.

I never used one in a milled receiver. The only gun I ever had issues with using my Circle 10 waffles was in a WASR, but that thing had a jacked up mag well.
I am always hesitant to file down a mag because it may cause it to not work well in other guns.

Both Firing Line and Arsenal are top quality and the chances of them having out of spec mag wells are practically nonexistent, but at the same time I have never heard of an out of spec Circle 10 waffle mag either.
Difficult to say where the problem is.

I had a similar problem with my milled mak-90. I just hit the mags and magwell with very thin layer of gun oil (or any firearms lubricant). Worked in and out a few times. now they fit nice and tight but are easily removed. No wobble. You probably just need to break them in a bit.

I use Bulgy waffle mags from 10 years ago effortlessly in my Firing Line Krink, & my 2 milled Mak 90's. Never had to adjust anything. I've only seen this with Wasr's, & even then the same mag would fit some Wasr's, & not others. I've even had customers come into the store with some Tapco mags, & say they want a Wasr that will take their mags without modifying anything. Wasr # 1, no fit. I grab another new Wasr from the back, & again no fit. Grab a 3rd Wasr from the back, & all his Tapco mags fit perfectly. Now that's customer service. Try that with an on line vendor. LOL. GARY N4KVE
