    Both ends of the spring... lengthwise... have free ends... the parts that extend furtherest from the coils. Either loose end should be to the front of the follower to give more lift to the front of the follower and nose of the bullets. The picture shows the spring aligned properly. Drop the follower in the tube, metal pin to the left front, and then the spring... with the loose end to the front.

      there is really no top and bottom tothe mag sprngs. either end will work if correctly installed.
      . My PM9 has over 34,000+ rounds through it, and runs much better than an illegal trying to get across our border

        BINGO, that did it for me. Thanks, Wynn. So, the key is not whether one end or the other is inserted first into the mag, but rather that the angle should be such as to give lift to the follower and the nose of the bullets. Got it! Finally!

        I have a few more comments regarding my initial range visit. Think I will create a new thread for those comments.
