Welcome aboard

Can you post some pics ? it would help to determine if your takedown lever is messed up or your safety is jammed ( or the toggle needs lubed etc. ). left , right and top should suffice

Hi Fred, I interpret your post to mean that when you open the action with an empty magazine inserted, the toggle train doesn't lock in the open position. If this is the problem then it's either a broken or missing hold-open or, more likely, a defective magazine. I would try to borrow another magazine and check it out.
Regards, Norm
