Recently got a S&W BodGuard .380; been happy with it, especially its reliability.
Until now. One magazine popped a round straight up, and then failed to pick up a round. I took the (marked) magazine home; took it down, and then some others (I have 6). The malfing mag had its spring top loop parallel to the top of the follower; most of the others were the opposite.
I'll test hop the offending magazine soon; meantime, anyone else have experience with these magazines?

No, to your question. I only intrude to say, once you have a magazine in pieces, don't miss the opportunity to give it a good scrub and oil it lightly. But you knew that already, so I'll shut up now. :cool:
 
Ii purchased 4 or 5 factory magazines for
BG380. I disassembled them for cleaning prior to use. I found all the magazine springs installed backwards.
