Here we go again. For field loads, in this order: friction ring, steel ring with taper forward, then spring. For trap loads, friction ring, spring, then the steel ring so it doesn't get lost. Two important points: the split in the bronze ring and the split in the steel spring ring around it MUST be lined up or the friction ring won't work. Lubrication is critical, a couple of drops of oil or gun grease smeared all over the mag tube then throughly wiped off with a clean dry rag is sufficient. Too little and the friction ring binds causing failure to eject, too much lube and the friction ring doesn't function at all causing battering of parts and failure. Here endeth the lesson.
