As above can they be fixed? One I have the little nub on the pellet holder 'star' (the black bit)that contacts the clear front plate to pull it round so you can tention it for loading is damaged and slips preventing me from loading the mag at all
I fixed 1 with the same problem a while ago....
Strip the mag and remove the wheel...
Drilled a hole in the wheel where the plastic stop used to be with a 1mm drill bit - then push fitted a panel pin into the wheel. The panel pin is then trimmed to be just proud of the wheel.
Rebuilt the mag - sorted 👍
