GT's Fantastic magazine work
I recently sent G.T. three magazines to work on. One was a FXO with a broken plastic base, and two were Interarms Mauser magazines that I wanted the plastic magazine bases replaced with aluminum bases, because they are more durable and I think they look much better.
Last week I received the three mags back, and all I can say is "WOW" !!! Such superb craftsmanship!!!! If I didn't know that the base of the FXO mag had been broken, I would swear that it is an all original mag. It looks totally original and correct.... The Interarms Mauser mag bases are just perfect; perfectly done, perfectly finished, and perfectly installed. I'm known as a really "picky" engineer (I think my friends use the word "anal" but I know they mean it in a nice way ) But I can not find a single fault with the work G.T. has done.... Truly amazing!!!!! Thank you G.T. !!!!!!!!! |

Excellent work....you have to be pleased. I own 2 of GT's mags that he built for me, and I could not be more pleased with the final product.

Hello!
I got my first G.T. magazine today! Have to say that the quality looks better than first class. I can´t wait the weekend to try it in action. Are there any more new words to praise his skills? Thanks Gerald! jussi |

Bill, THanks for the mention. Just a reminder to all, that I do stock all of GT's different type mag bottoms and also have a couple of his complete new metal bottomed mags in stock. TH

Hi to You all...
I know that there are some of my "cousins" out there. I want to say that I really enjoy this forum! Onko siellä amerikoissa tällä hetkellä asian harrastajaa, joka tämän tekstin ymmärtää? Pitäähän edes yksi löytyä tältäkin foorumilta. Siis amerikanserkku...Minullakin on kaukaista sukua Teksasissa. jussi |
