You may find that the aftermarket mag feeds the bullets either too high or too low with regards to the entrance to the chamber or feed ramp. If you field strip the gun, load a few rounds of ammo into the good factory mag and then insert it into the grip frame you can observe the feed angle. I have found most often that it is the feed lips and follower angle that are off. There are a couple of big 'if's: IF you have a factory magazine that functions correctly, and IF you have some mechanical skills you can often tweak the aftermarket mags to work. I have had a few Triple K magazines work flawlessly. My experience has been a qualified opposite. After YEARS of just sitting back and observing i just got board and quit checking in.Īftermarket magazines are a subject that comes up often on gun forums and is accompanied with the usual 'Triple K magazines are junk' or 'ProMag magazines are junk' replies. And i think someone else started up again, but did a Escrow account. I think the 1st guy that tried to do a group by walked off with the money for what he had collected up to that point. You may also find that there is alot of talk, but when someone says you need to buy X many to get Y price, then mouths and wallets shut.įwiw, there was a group buy for some Colt ACE mags years ago by Metalform. You may find that people become really impatient when they have forked out $$$ for something they dont have. find out the minimum? quantity for them tool up, 3 what price you will need to sell each mag and 4, who will jump on this and 5 how long it will take. But who (you?) will do the reserach to 1. but unless $$ or profit is guaranteed, not may people/companies will take the risk.įwiw, you are more than welcome to do so if you feel strongly about it and its not 'rocket science'.Īlso, if you feel so strong about it, you may want to look at getting a group buy. Maybe when an Star Trek Replicator is made, it will be cheap. Click to st to tool up and manufacture and demand.Įveryone thinks their needs are more important than anyone else and its easy peasy.
