Magazine springs

EOC Bob · 05-05-2001, 08:18 PM

I Replaced the spring in my unmarked DWM magazine with a circular spring, drifting out the retaining pin with no problem, however the pin in my S/42 2/1001 magazine, is so well hidden in the workmanship and blueing process that I can't identify it's position, even with a magnifying glass held under a magnifying light. I also notice that the spring appears more square in shape rather than round. Were different springs used in Luger mags, and can they be interchanged? Thanks - Bob
