( scribe it both sides) fasten a piece of course sand paper/emery paper/wet and dry. to a flat surface and remove the amount needed, keep trying it in the mag but dont put the pins back until all fits. the bullet follower has to have the back leg pulled out the amount you removed from the back of the stop. this is the bit that cost me 40 notes for a new mag as its not as tuff as it looks. get it red hot first. its not easy ,but Worth the effort.
