Can you use sheet metal from old Japanese cars to make the mags – – then they will be 100% authentic! I’ll take two!

I am very interested in buying a few of these as well. Keep up the incredible work!

I always “assumed” (and we know where that leads) that the grooves in mags were produced by some sort of beading press, before the front, rear, and top and bottom were bent to final shape. Was I wrong?

I understand. I have a 99 and no magazines. That is the real reason for the project. Hope to have a few of the test pressings completed this weekend. All I need is more time and money and did I mention time.

I’d be very interested in your finished product. Original mags are very tough to find. These would be a real boost to the collector/shooter community.

The pressure during stamping will be against the side wall of the die. This dimension is very thick and bolted to the bottom plate. There is no chance of movement. The end pieces don’t have that much pressure against them.

Very nice work! A question about the about the 3 piece die half, Will that side flex under pressure or are you going to add more backing support to that half?

I like that idea. Thanks Don.

In the process you should ask potential customers what the serial number of their weapon is and for an additional cost customize magazines to fit their weapon
