Sows ear, silk purse???

Over the years, I'd pick up 2, 3 or 5 Mec-Gars as I found them, always stuck one in a 'shooter' if I was selling one. And right now, I seem to have 1 or 2 at the most of mec-gars right now.

GT, I can't say that I really like the Triple-K - would be interesting to see one that is modified.

I wish they'd sell a ton of those 2/1001 that maybe are in storage - who knows? But I was surprised to see so many breechblocks that were sold over the last 3-5 yrs on ebay.

I once checked into buying a number of Mec-Gars, and they said to get a dealer discount I'd have to buy at a minimum of a 1,000 magazines (?) - even at $10 a pop, that is a bit of money in itself.
