I have a problem with a couple mags I have. When I load them up with 30 rounds the rounds go loose, like I can shake them out of the mag. I think the follower is getting stuck or jammed in the mag. What can I do to fix this, or should I just get new followers? They are  Romanian I believe.

Sounds like you may have a dent in the magazine's body deep enough it's catching the spring or follower.  Sometimes it happens.

Unless you're extremely partial to that particular magazine, you might opt for another magazine.  Otherwise, strip the magazine down and see what's going on inside of it.

Have you totally taken the mags apart?

Cleaning the oil off my mags I took it apart on a sticky follower (i thought it was caked up cosmo)  But what actually was wrong with the mag was that they packed two followers into one mag, it was really bizzare but then I also got a free follower

I took them all apart and cleaned them out. Not sure where they are hitting, its hard to tell. I think the curve of the mag doesnt match the curve of the follower. Thats all I can think of. I'm gonna make due with what i have and get some new ones.
