Opinions on this mag bottom please.

Doug G. · 11-02-2004, 06:19 PM

I am thinking of trading this mag for a Bakelite FXO mag. Just want opinions as if the bottom looks kosher? I noticed that there is a funny area on the left side.

OK, I'll qualify my response... If you notice ...on the photo..there is just a hint of a parting line on the very front of the bottom ... these bottoms were cast.. and the flashing buffed off.. then the #'s were struck... it's all Mauser.. just the way it's spos'ed to be!!! ... til...lat'r...GT <img border="0" alt="[jumper]" title="" src="graemlins/jumper.gif" />

What are the acceptance stamps on that magazine?

GT, thanks for the reassurance. I would not feel right trading a bogus mag. The guy wants it because it is very close to the gun he owns and I need Bakelite FXO's for a few of my Black Widows.

Greg, the tube markings are E/37 x2 FXO & P.08.
