Sendero issues

Hi all
Hope I can get some help & advice.
I have recently purchased a Sendero in 7mil mag second hand but in excellent condition.
This issues I have are 2 fold;
Firstly the ammo does not stay in the mag and jumps out. I could put a drop mag conversion in it but for the money I would expect better.
2ndly the reloads are difficult to eject sticking down near the base of the case.
The rifle was sitting in the shop for sale for 18 months before I bought it.
Do I need to get in and give it a polish up with a abrasive?
Cheers in advance

Re: Sendero issues
Hi Daryl, its very odd to see magazine issues with these.

As for the extraction, you will need to find out whether it is a primary extraction issue as opposed to a rough chamber issue.

It may pay to take this rifle to a reputable smith for a check over. This is yet another job that may be very difficult to diagnose via the internet. It would be very easy for me to send you down the wrong path.

Re: Sendero issues
Hi Daryl, suggest you take it back to the shop and get them to rectify it. All goods sold should be in working order and fit for purpose.
