I just purchased a Beta-C 100 round mag with the clear cover. The pig just won't accept any ammo from the speed 5 round loader and by hand. I tried lubing it with the supplied graphite dry lube. Before I attempt breaking this thing...
I wanted to know if there were any experiences and tips if any... Thanks all

if you can't load a round in it, sounds like the double link spacer is near the bottom straddling the point where the rounds go into the drums.
if you bought this used, the previous owner may have messed with the spacer rounds and put the double linked spacer in wrong. take the feed tower off and redo the spacer rounds. if you have the instruction manual it will tell you how the spacers should be arranged in the tower. if you don't have a manual, go to the BETA CO. website they have instuctions on how the spacer rounds should be arranged in the tower. note on how the double linked spacer should be positioned, that is key |

Thanks a million guys.... Well it looks like I have to fix the problem as the seller is hands off at this point... it's not that big of a problem to fix, matter of fact, if you have a HK93/33/53 or clone, you can use that drum for tha rifle as wellt, no need to buy another drum. just a simple matter of getting the HK feedtower from BETA and take out a few spacers, and you can use it on the HK. that is what I do, I have both a AR and a VECTOR 53 SBR. |
