Brand new TM saiga 12k problems

[Wegalaxy]

Hello,
I have just picked up a TM saiga 12k from patrol base.
I have found that the cut off on empty has stopped working on the magazines when the dry fire switch is off. (which I am assuming is the small switch on the top when flicked it removed the blocker bar from in front of the knocker valve).
It also sometimes stops half way through a magazine when I have filled it up.
I have purged the magazines but the problem persists.
I use green gas and 45 round magazines.
Am I missing something?
Is the dry fire switch the one on the top next to the gas router?
Thought I would ask on here to see if there is an easy fix before I go through the motions of a return.
Thanks

If it were me, I would probably return. Spending that much on a RIF, it had better be working perfectly out of the box. If it was a £120 GBB Pistol, meh, I'll try to fix but anything over £200-300, then any tiny issue, I am not going to be happy with.

Is it the same with different mags?

Patrol Base is notorious for sending out return items; not saying that's what's happened here, but it's happened. Alot of cases where people got sent clearly used/return items from them. Read a comment once that said they returned an item to Patrol Base, and they sent the exact same gun back to them as a replacement.

Hopefully you can either find a fix or get a replacement. The Saiga 12 is a RIF I have always wanted, but it's a bit pricey for me atm. Really fits into the S.T.A.L.K.E.R game vibe for me lol

Hello,
Yeah I think a return is in order.
The gas not being consistent only happens with one mag. I purged it and it seems to have improved but the stop on empty is failing with every mag.
Thanks
