Unless it is a matching magazine it does not make much sense to spent $$ on it.

For about $35 you can have a new Mec-gar mag.

GT can answer the cost question, but you would have =/- $15 just in postage there and back.

Yes,
but it is not stainless, just chrome or bright, and would be worth something depending on the rest of the condition and number.

Take good pictures and show us.

RANGE REPORT:


Okay, so I got the new mec gar magazine and it seemed to fit and function much better then the original but unfortunately im still having a problem with it intermittently holding the bolt open with ammo still in the magazine.

just for fun i took out the bolt hold open and it functioned properly

so im wondering what your opinion is, could it be the bolt hold open/ spring?

or could it be the actual magazine release/ spring?
