I have a Hungarian surplus mag...believe its Hungarian, maybe Romainian... When loading it I can only get 28 rounds it, then it locks up tight. Any ideas?

Took it apart and oiled the inside, everything looks fine. And the other three mags I have loaded up fine.

Nevermind..I got it to load, its a new mag and hasn't been loaded before. I took it apart again and scrubbed the inside with a brass brush.
Slapped it back together and it loaded up fine.
Its got that heavy enamel paint finish on it. Guess it had a thick spot or something, new and stiff I guess. Will take care of that problem this weekend !

Sometimes I will take an old wood ruler or something similar and rapidly push the follower all the way down and repeat a few times on a new mag just to break it in.
