Answer

I don’t know of a template made for this alteration. Maybe someone out there does, if so let us know. I wouldn’t use a template anyway; just get your new mag and check to see where you need to remove metal. Take some measurements etc. then when you go to remove metal take out LESS than you think you need. Then check the fit with the mag. Continue this until it fits and works. Tim, way too many people put too much importance on specs. and templates. Make the parts work and work correctly. The templates are just guidelines, 9 out of 10 times after a part is altered to a template or to the “spec” the part won’t work correctly. Now what do you do?? You will have to make the parts fit and work and the “template and spec” didn’t mean a thing. Learn how the gun works and how the parts should fit then make them do what they are supposed to do when they are supposed to do it. I am not picking on you, this is a concept that SO many people have and they have to learn to overcome it. If a part doesn’t work who cares what the spec is?? Just make it work. Good luck and let us know how it turns out.

I used my mag to trace and started on the 1st one…made by Maddi—a good heavy receiver…went well–about 1 1/2 hour…. the next one was easier…Romanian receiver–a lot thinner and it took about 45 mins… works great and have customers happy!… Thanks!
