Feets / Collection / My build Remington 597 adapter

Post image

So i got the remington 597 adapter for my 10/22 and im kinda disappointed. I have to hold the bolt open when i insert the magazine or they just fall out and even so if you manipulate the gun aggressively the magazine still work themselves out. I put a strip of electrical tape on the front face of the magazines and that helped a bit but im just wondering if this is just a normal experience or i got a defective adapter? Dont flame me for the barrel length i ran out of money with the chassis. Short barrel coming soon.

Probably an issue with the guns magwell. Mine doesn't like anything except the stock rotary mags. The adapter i got works better than when I was running the Butler Creek mags but it could be better.
