| Does anyone know what process is utilized by SW and/or Bobcat to "tighten" the magwell on the SW5 or BW5? What other problems have been encountered specifically on the stamped receiver SW5FS and how were they corrected? |
| Dont take my exact word, but I was told they use a mandrel shaped like a mag that is solid steel or alloy. After they insert it in the magwell, they lightly tap and shape the magwell with another tool like a rubber mallet and soft punch. Dont try it yourself! Call and ask them, they will offer help. Or call protech-engineering (.com). |
Toad will describe a process where they will weld a bead in the magwell that will tighten it up. They have always have issues with the receiver being out of spec. Look inside the magwell and I bet you see a weld inside. |
