Thx, Mason.  Would certainly rather go to the source!

OK, I tried a fairly heavy moly grease, both on the follower and on the sides of the mag.  Didn't make any difference, still hanging-up about every time.


Noticed that there are symetrical indentations, small about 1/2 way up on the front of the mag, as well as in the rear.  The rear pits, or divots are in the slot that runs up the left side, rear, of the mag.  They almost appear like markings of some kind, but can't believe that Mauser would have put anything in there.  Haven't been able to get a clear look at them yet, but the follower seems to jam on them.  Should a C96 mag be anything other than totally smooth inside?
