As I remember with David's mags... we were making "silk purses" out of "Sows ears" and we turned out pretty good... just lost a little capacity... 7 instead of eight??...... best to all, til...lat'r....GT

My SS mag was disabled due to "user error". When the gun and its four mags arrived, I noticed that one of the mags was missing its retaining pin for the bottom, and I set it aside until I got around to putting in a new pin. 3/32" stainless rod segment used, to replace the old. Well...I inadvertently loaded and used that mag before rapairing, and after about three shots, the spring and plastic bottom were launched somewhere in the lawn. I was amused to find the brown plastic bottom yet was unable to come up with the spring--which should have shown up on the sweeper magnet.
