Default Mauser mag spring options...

Hi to all! Well, things have calmed down enough to where I can readdress my ongoing Mauser Magazine upgrade program.. As mentioned earlier, I have found a nice East German mag bottom, that replicates the original Mauser war time mag bottom exactly... So, with that option available for now at least, I have turned my attention to the follower spring.. As most of you know, the Mauser post war Parabellum has a bear strong follower spring, and even after considerable use and set, they're still almost too strong to load!! ... But, some, not all, Mauser Parabellums seem to need this particular super strong spring to work correctly??? Soooo, I have submitted samples to a spring company to get a better, but still strong, spring made to up-grade and replace the springs now found in the Parabellum's magazine! I hope to have two new offerings, in conjunction with the already available GTHQ mag spring, for tuning the mags perfectly to your specific guns needs and requirments.. I will have a GTHQHD (G.T. High Quality Heavy Duty), GTHQMD (G.T. High Quality Medium Duty), and the standard GTHQ (G.T. High Quality) spring, which is exactly the same spec's as a new original pre 1945 Luger mag spring.. Cutting to the chase, I'll have a super up-grade, for both MEC-GAR mags and original Mauser Parabellum mags, either / or! ... Should be the very best available for that type of Luger... Lot'sa work yet to do! But the dogs are loose! I'll keep all informed! Best to all, and many thanks to my customers, til...lat'r...GT...
