Thanks Guys, for the feedback on the MEC-GAR upgrades... The mag is one of the key culprits to malfunction, and improvements in this area, are always helpfull to the shooter... The component of the MEC-GAR mag that is most important, and has to be absolutly correct is the shell, and on the MEC-GAR mag's, it is both correctly dimensioned, and also hardened... In this regard, it is superior even to the originals... The next part they got absolutely right (for their tube) was the follower and follower button.. ..All good stuff.. After that the other main components suffer a bit on quality and design... most noticably, the follower spring continues to take a degrading set.. and the follower spring cap, doesn't gather the spring correctly upon full compression... then there is the plastic bottom that is durable to wear, but, occasionally fractures at the pin holes and blows out the bottom .... Probably a bad thing to have happen in a gun fight???
.... Anyway, My up-grades are geared to improve these deficient areas, and provide improved durability and function... They are not perfect, but about as good as can be had right now... For perfect function, other areas have to be addressed as well, such as cartridge power and OAL, Mainspring tension, and general mechanical shape of the P.08 it's self... In short, all has to be tuned together, and the gun can, and will perform flawlessly.... Thanks again guys for the confidence you have shown in my up-graded mags, BTW, They look a bit more like what a nice shoot'en Luger should be wearing anyway!
Best to all, til....lat'r....GT
