Hello to all, When I prototyped and produced magazine follower springs, I used the best originals I could get as baseline examples.. One thing I made sure of was that my springs were stronger then the originals... BUT, since making them I have run into situations where the 1970's Mauser Parabellums will not function properly with out an original Mauser post war mag?
... The main difference between the Mauser post war mag and any other mag is spring tension on the follower... You can barely stand to load the Mauser because of the effort needed to depress the follower... but obviously, it is necessary to have the extremely strong spring for function..why? I haven't a clue! Some work fine, some are increadibly fussy... I'm hot on the trail, but would like some feedback and perhaps if some members have any original post war Mauser parabellum mag springs to spare...we can arrange something in trade?? Let me know your thoughts and experiences guys! Best to you, til....lat'r...GT
