old DWM magazine binding

[chazbotic]

pictured is an old DWM magazine that came with a p.08 i inherited. the follower will depress only enough to load two rounds before becoming incredibly hard to depress. the other magazine i have has no such issue.

i'm wondering if there are common things i can look for. i've examined the interior for obstructions and found none. the spring is in good working order and i tried temporarily swapping the spring guide, spring, and baseplate with known good ones but it still binds.

i'm thinking the magazine body is slightly deformed somehow but can find no evidence of it.

suggestions?
