| I was talking with a guy the other day and he was telling me about a new magazine spring that is being made out of some special material used by NASA or somebody but I forgot what the website he said it was at. Anybody know what I'm talking about? |

I am about to replace my mag springs for some USGI 30 rdrs. I already replaced the followers, but does anyone have an opinion on whether I should get a replacement from Wolff or if I should get the chrome silicone springs, such as these: http://www.cmmginc.com/cmmg_images/tbl_images/Mags/High_Performance_Mag_Kit.jpg |

While the C-S springs are probably the best possible springs available, I'm really not convinced they are necessary. The Wolfe springs are great, and much less expensive. I guess you'll have to decide if that extra "insurance" is worth the money. It just wasn't for me, and I'm pretty demanding when it comes to my guns' reliablity. -Troy |

You heard correctly, there are such springs. They are of a "secret patented material" supposedly has "memory". Can't be stretched or deformed out of proper form. Dunno know the cost of these wondersprings, but I bet she's a doosy ($$$$$). I agreee with the choir. The existing spring is pretty "darn" good. Why try to improve on it. Side note: Chrome Silicon springs for use in ARs is a bunch of hype to try to sell "improved" products that generally can't perform as well as the ones they are replacing. Just my .02. Cheers. |
