Some magazines will rattle in the well. This does not affect feeding. But some fit better than others. Yugoslavian, chinese and Bulgarian mags fit very well even in WASR's. So do russian ones but Hungarians will still rattle. But the romanian ones are the worst. Another kind are the ATI grey ones that you see every now and then. They are tight but due to the lip construction can be tempermental in some AK's. If you can find them only get one to test and if they work then get more.
Edit: The gun is a WASR. They have the magwell grinded out to accept double stack, there will be a bit of play. Like I said your best option are to get better quality mags. I would say get bulgarian ones. Best common ones you can find.

Well I would say get a yugo but,I won't. Ever try different mags.
Are the mags loose in the gun? A smith could add some metal in the well to stop that.
These are designed to be loose but,some people bend their mags but I do not advise that.
