Re: Magazine alteration

Quote:

It looks like the chances of finding a 1910 9.5x57 magazine are slim and none. There is a 1908 8x56 available. What do you guys think of using a drimmel tool to alter the spool to take 9.5x57. Too difficult or doable?....





I can think of two methods that may yield a better result, are 'doable', but would perhaps be expensive / more difficult to arrange and either would require use of a 'loaner' magazine. One could borrow an M1910 magazine spool and:

A) Consult with a firm that does high quality 3D printed prototypes, have them scan the original spool and / or carrier / housing and have them 'printed' in a durable material.

B) Same idea, but contact a competent manufacturing jeweler and have precise wax castings done in bronze or stainless steel.

Either would provide the opportunity to recoup expense by having small lots produced and selling them to other MS aficionados.
