I bought used Magma molds from a commercial guy and my bases are getting fins on the bases.I noticed that there is a gap on the right side of the molds. They are like 2 paper stacked on each other thickness. Is there a trick to fix this problem?

Are you using handles or a magma machine? If handles I believe that you need RCBS mold handles.
QUIS CUSTODIET IPSOS CUSTODES?
or file/grind yur current handles to allow clearance, check for burrs to file off especially around the aligning pins
No im using a mark 7. There is a space under the sprew plate.
Remove the sprue plate there may be something under it not allowing it to set flush. Magma sells new sprue plates, try a new one or the mold may be worn in the pivot area.
