Can this magazine be saved ?

I believe this is a WW I era magazine I have with a 1913 military DWM.

As can be seen, as some point it looks as though it's got distorted and now rubs and binds when inserted / removed.

Is this repairable, or should I just look for another period correct one ?

Good, clean wood base 9582 f + if anyone needs it !

Reach out to GT before you dispose of it. He’s been known to work wonders on magazines.

I've fixed several and now look for worn out bodies to fix and put parts in. That is the good thing about metal over plastic.
