Brand new P-64 magazines?

Post by blacktop »

I've seen that a couple of places have brand new P-64 magazines listed for sale. Has anyone bought any of these and given them a try?

I may not have put 100s of rounds thru them, but they have performed like the originals for me.

I have read here that the original mags have a metal follower and some of the clones have a plastic one. Most have had little trouble with either but one poster mentioned some trouble he associated with the plastic follower....possibly. He never got back, that I saw, to confirm.

The new ones I got have metal followers.

it may be that the first one came with plastic followers and so many complaints they went to steel
