[QUOTE="BJH, post: 1410057, member: 93876"] I should clarify that the magazine is nothing that would deter me from buying one. But the problem is that every one I have handled is kind of a pain to cycle the mag. It does not clip in very well and if you are not careful it will fall out. Which in a hunting situation it could cause a great deal of grief and probably some choice words. My dad talked to Cooper and they told him to adjust the clip that attaches to the trigger guard and see if it helps (it did). If you pull the trigger guard, there is a small metal tab that hangs down to lock the magazine in place. It is held on by a small set screw with an allen head. If you loosen that screw you can adjust the position forward or back until it locks the magazine in place better. I pulled dad's guard and adjusted it and it helped a lot. It's still a "cheesy" design in my opinion. But if you get the tab square and adjusted right it helps. I would love to see them put a better bottom metal in their rifles. I hear rumor that they are going to offer a hinged floor plate in the future. Either way, its as close to custom as you can get without paying the 'custom' price. [/QUOTE]
