| Thank you for your purchase. It is our goal to provide you
with a mag that will provide you with many years of service and enjoyment . In
order to get the maximum life and performance out of your mag, proper cleaning is
recommended.
1. Periodic disassembly and cleaning with soap, water and a toothbrush is suggested. Do not
use solvents or other chemicals. Dry well and lightly spray spring and interior
of mag with WD40 prior to assembly.
2. We have tested and experimented with over 8
major offerings of ammo and as expected, there is a HUGE difference in the
feeding, performance and reliability of the different ammo brands. You will
have a very difficult time adjusting the mag using some brands of “bulk” ammo
since some of the bullet profiles are difficult to feed and many of the rounds
are not full power which will result in poor or failed ejection.
We recommend that you test with CCI solid round nose MiniMags to minimize the
effect of ammo on your adjustments, then after the mag is adjusted, bulk ammo
should also work well within the limitations of the ammo.
3. Occasionally new
mags will require a minimal break-in period as evidenced by the inability of
the mag to keep up with the feeding speed required. If your ammo is sticking in the mag, you
should:
A. make sure the mag is clean on the inside. Dirt and carbon and unburned powder will increase the drag on the bullets and will slow down the feeding speed and ability.
B. Especially on new mags, occasionally some of the glass fibers in the mag that
give it strength will be close to the surface and will increase the drag
resistance on the follower. Disconnect
the follower from the spring and manually slide the follower up and down the
inside of the magazine on the rails simulating use and the follower will polish
to the mag. Spray a light mist of WD40
on the inside of both mag pieces prior to assembly. The more the mag is used the smoother it will
get. |
