There are things you can do to keep the floorplates on... I was decieved by a certain mag seller's website and bought a bunch of mags with holes drilled in floorplates and bodies with twisted wire holding them on...

I never have to bend the tabs on the bottom of the mag when changing followers. I just take a small object like the tip of a cleaning rod and put it in the hole on the baseplate and pull it up a little bit then slide it off.

Read the last post.
A small screwdriver may help, also. No need to bust the tabs off the floorplate. Be gentle, Sir. Please don't refer to my sig pic, when dealing with the fine art of disassembling mags.... |

Well, I hope you have at least 2 tabs left?
A good tape job will work reliably enough for a range mag. Wow, that sucks. ~ s0ulzer0 |

Wow, that sucks. ~ s0ulzer0 yeah, there's two tabs left, i just loaded it up and its holding up OK. im thinking it will be OK now. but your right, i think ill stamp "range use only" on it. |

The two "Green Follower FAQ" threads tacked to the top of this forum explain how to take apart your mags without damage, and how to install GFs properly.

Try wiggling the follower left to right while pulling up on it dont bend the tabs they should stay as they are,just try wiggling them youll find your way.
