do these have any markings anywhere on body or base ?
do they have plastic followers and bases ? thanks Bill |
Metal follower, plastic base.
I don't get what their problem is with manufacturing Luger mags. I bought one and I didn't like the blued one - it had a lot of drag on the spring. I sent it back to Mecgar and they said they would give me a stainless one - I've been waiting over a year to get it back! |

I believe that if I were in your shoes, I would give Mec-Gar a call concerning the mag exchange. It sounds as though they may well have forgotten about you. |
Can anyone tell me if one is better than the other? Thanks. Jim

Mec Gar are worlds better than Triple Ks in general quality, fit and finish.
It all seems to depend on what your particular gun likes when it comes to Lugers. |

There were some other small differences, leading to a lesser quality magazine (compared to their earlier magazines)... Two of the nickel 'old style' Mec-Gar magazines I bought new had pins of a type not usually found in Mec-Gars...Not inferior, just an odd gauge... :rolleyes: Quote:

New MecGars
The new MecGars definitely have plastic followers. I've got one of the new nickel mags. Generally, I like the old ones with metal followers better; but actually the new one functions better in my two shooter pistols (one .30 & one 9mm). I guess the plastic or polymer follower will hold up okay- it has so far. :) Bill

At one time GT had some mag jigs available for both resting the mag body on and also the correct mandrel for pounding out dents. I will have a good supply of the new Mecgar mags in stock by next week. TH

I just got an email from Greg Cote LLC [Wed 27 Aug] that "Luger PO8 8 RD 9mm nickel finish, black baseplate MGLUGP08N" were back in stock...

I broke down and ordered one from buds just now. Ive got one of the older mec gar mags plus a couple factory mags. Im going to try out my dwm luger hopefully tomorrow. Cant wait. Jim
|
I received the same email from Greg Cote. I have dealt with both Greg and Tom in the past, and can verify that one can order from either with no fear.
|
I received my back orders of the Mecgar PO8 mags yesterday, so they're available for sale. Other than the black composite follower and non-checkered follower button, these appear the same as their previous variations. TH
