Mag Failure
I have an issue with a magazine which came with my 1916 DWM. (Non-matching mag.) The "button" which rides with the follower separated. It looks to me as though it had been threaded into the follower , and the threaded portion of the stud sheared off. Metal fatigue , I suppose. On the up side , I learned that the button interacts with the hold open lever.
Questions :
Is this a repairable situation?
If yes , then how would one go about the repair?
Is this particular magazine worth repairing? It is generally in good condition , nickel plated , I think (?) , and feeds just fine.
Have a look at the images and let me know what you think... 'Ski
