Okay, here we go again.
1. SA 17 rnd Mags
As several of you know, I have 4 17rnd SA mags for my BHP, and the gun was having difficulty stripping the first round or so out of the mags. I increased the strength of the recoil spring from standard to 18.5# and this seems to have solved the problem on 3 of the 4 mags.
The 4th mag still snags occasionally (in truth I have not yet put enough rounds through it since the spring switch to tell if it is a significant problem or not), and it has developed a new twitch: The slide fails to lock back on this magazine about every other time. Recommendations? Just a bad mag?
2. This is a new one. HP Inglis mags...is their capacity 13 or 14? I ask since I was kinda mindlessly putting rounds in the mag, I stopped when it was full. I slid it into the gun, racked the slide, and fired away. 14 shots.
Hmmm.
I counted empty spaces in the box. 14 empties. And NO, I didn't rack, eject and top off the mag- I counted the next mag and sure enough; 14 went in, easily.
Normally I would say this would indicate a 14 round capacity D), but I was pretty sure they were standard 13 rnd mags. Ideas?
Thanks,
Mike
