Question: Isn't the bakelite bottom of the late FXO type extruded magazine brittle? Wouldn't stamping of numbers in this type bottom result in a high casualty rate when the bakelite shatters? I would think that if there are numbers found in this type of material that it would have to be be applied with a heat or melting process instead of an impact stamp...

Comments and opinions are solicited
