*Still* looking for the 20 and 30rd blueprints, any help? I think I now have the BP's for the 10 or 5rd mags.

just so you know, making a high capacity magazine out of raw materials or other post ban mags, is a felony.

BTW I have ammassed a pretty good collection of different gun blueprints, and patent specs. If anyone is looking for gun prints, give me a IMmail.

Seems like just about everything is a felony offense or a terrorist act these days isn't it?
Next time, don't bother pointing out the legality of somthing, lets just assume that it's all illegal, since it's going that way anyway.

Knowledge is not illegal (yet).

I wouldn't mind having prints on the 20 & 30 rounder's also , come in handy to ck the specs on mag's before you buy them.

Making a new hi cap would not be legal, but you are allowed to make and use replacement parts.

[i]Someone[/i] is manufacturing mags for the LEO/GOV market.  legally, eh?  It would be nice to have the mag specs before bidding on a contract.

A Freedom of Information Act request might get complete specs for 30rd mags, including dimensions, material, heat treatment, and finishing details for all the mag parts.

I'm looking for the complete tooling for USGI mag production.

I'm not going to run the process, I just want the machinery!

Id be interested in blueprints too. They make great "posters".

A 20 round steel box mag would be easy to make out of sheet metal, but illegal for now. The 30 round mags would be impossable because they are curved. Just my .02

The tooling for USGI magazines is in the possession of the company that is the current contractor for those magazines.

The tooling for GI magazines is actually government property, and as the contract shifts from one manufacturer to the next, the tooling is transferred to the new contractor.

Or so I've heard.
