| I recommend a drop of loctite on the thumb button nut before use. I'm going to start doing this to each mag I ship. The only complaint I'm getting about these mags is that the screw works loose and it's possible that the nut could fall out and be lost. Come to think of it, I'd do it to all my mag thumb buttons regardless of brand. |

i completely broke them down, sanded every square millimeter, next i took gurilla glue and applied it to the edges, applied clamps to set, once set i worked the inside heavily with sand paper to even all the inside to a smooth unified surface free of any excess glue, and a burrs. Next i reassembled them w blue loctite for all 4 screws. Once all together i take a finishing sanding sheet and take the entire outside back to a smooth flush finish, kicker is if your gonna take the time to do all these reliability mods u cant cut any corners and esp not on any of the sanding since u reinforced the entire edges of the mag w. epoxy. However if u take the cpl. of hours to do the process on 3 or 4 of these, you will def. not recongnize them from the factory promags.
I like the idea of $ 20 or 25 mags that are like 95% the same as the stock mags, but bottom line IMHO after a lot of problems being blamed on weak factory screws or picky ammo issues i truly think the gsg is as reliably as the best running high cap. ruger 10/22s if not better when i have a mag that feeds 5 to 10x through without a nose jam. Most folks didnt even want to think that their problems could be from mag design and quality when they knew that it wasnt even an option to try to find alternative better feedings mags. |
