Haenel Magazine 16/20 round

[G.T.]

Hi Don, Thanks for the picture on the fabrication sequence... annnnd, it is pretty much just what I said?? ..........Except.. I would still have to believe the magazine was milled when the blank was flat as I surmised, rather then formed, welded and then machined?.... From a manufacturing standpoint, it is a lot easier to control tolerances on a flat surface then on a thin radius... I wish I had a 105 year old German machinist to ask?.... ... best to all, til...lat'r....GT

BTW, 16 rounds is the very outside max you could ever go on a straight Luger magazine, 15 would even be more reliable?... ... even the drums start to curve at round number 13 to 15...... Don't ask me how I know, but ... I do....
