No, it has not happened to my Hasselblad. Currently using an A16 back with matched serial numbers on both the magazine and the back. I am supposed to get another A12 back from the seller but not sure when. I have been looking on ebay and some of the a12 backs look really good but the magazine is stuck. Well, I am thinking about getting one of those stuck backs and to fix it myself. Is it an easy job to do or it is more of a problems than it is worth????

I suspect that the dark slide appears to be in but is not in all the way. Remove the dark slide and reinsert. If that does not work remove the dark slide, and turn it over. If that still does not work, try another dark slide.

Oh, just to be clear. It has not happened to my Hasselblad. I just want to pickup a cheap one with known stuck magazine issue and hoping I could fix it.
