aftermarket pistol magazines

juicebruiser · 10-11-2012, 11:20 AM

I should of read the message boards first I guess. I am now the owner of a Promag Magazine which does not fit without forces over normal to insert. Is it normal to have to modify after market stuff ? I do it for car stuff .

Just wondering

Last Promag I bought was for a Kahr, same problem. Wish I'd had the gun along at time of purchase, could have found out the mag was too fat the easy way.

Oh well it made a decent reactive target a few days later.

Not normal for aftermarket gun parts unless they are advertised as such. If you can tell where the mag is dragging, you could sand that down. If you do, remember to clean the mag and its parts completely before using.

Unlikely but possible something in your gun is out of spec - usually grip screws.

I'll work it out , I think the Taper area at the top is not correct. It works fine until the last 3/8th of an inch. But that is what power tools are for.

It is interesting that the Mag fits OK if I remove the insides. I am going to examine the individual parts and get this to work.
