The bolt notch looks fine when in focus! That's good.
What type mag is that? It doesn't look shaped just right at the top.
Could just be a worn notch in the mag or the mag catch itself, or a defective mag.

Usually the follower is stopped by the feed lips, at about the same time the button stops in its slot.

DonVoigt, the original photo was crap, yes clear here and looks good, so that is good news. As for the type of mag....."uh a black one"? No idea? How could I tell, just poured over it and it has no markings I can see.

You could post several views of the magazine, front, back, top , bottom, side views. It may be a POS aftermarket mag and just "won't work"- no matter what you do. JMHO.

DonVoigt, posting multiple photos of mag, couple photos here but bulk of photos at photo-sharing site imgur.

If you Luger Druids and Wizards can ID this mag from these photos well they will tell tales of your magic for years to come.

Can't tell the source, but it is obviously aftermarket and with all the rub marks pretty much oversize to boot.

Now that you have solved the magazine hold open problem, I'd retire that mag!
