Magazine springs for new Mauser P.08's

[G.T.]

Super information.... at least we're on the right track! So, to condense it down, do we have a design issue with the guns?? Or, a greater issue with the mags?? And, now that i'm on this quest.... is there a cure?? ... ""I've been known to go to great lengths... to solve a problem that doesn't exist!"" Best to all, til....lat'r....GT

Hi GT:

We are faced with certain facts and variables.

1) We have a fixed mechanical design, be it good or bad.

2) We have an opportunity to improve the function of this design over a relative range of commercially available ammo.

3) We can tune the design to function with a given round.

4) We have a good magazine to start our work with, the Mec-Gar magazine.

5) We need to carefully choose our ammo and proceed with the process of designing both magazine and recoil springs to match it, knowing that ammo around that same strength will function within a relative range.

Regards

Sieger
