I've also found that in addition to their sturdiness and generally high craftsmanship and superior materials, due to a slightly higher cartridge positioning/presentation of the top round that my 1938 Mauser S/42 will reliably feed hollowpoint cartridges from them-at least Winchester Silvertips.

Best, Jon

As i mentioned earlier this FXO magazine does do fit flush or has a different angle than all my other mags. I remember this being discussed before, something about the way they are made. Allso this goes to another thread where the discussion is about the difference in mags and some being tight. Shown is my 1917 erfurt and the only mags that will just drop out when the mag rlease is pushed is the FXO mag shown and thriple k repo mag, all my original mags except the fxo will have to be pulled out when the mag release button is pushed . All my other mags work just fine in my dwm's. thanks Padre

Default fxo mag....

Hi Dan, Lugerdoc has it right.. it's been converted...but, it may be able to be converted back?? It depends on if the knobs have been relieved to let the shell slide down into them, or... cut away to clear the knobs.. If you tap out the pin, and the mag shell is complete, we can put a nice Black Plastic Bakelite bottom in.. if not...we can recut the shell to fit the exsisting bottom.. at least i think we can.. gott'a see it apart first... It's altered, soooo, we can alter it again and make it more asthesticly pleasing.. At my house, it'll run you $35.00... but it'll be nice..and a better fit... best to you, til...lat'r...GT
