I think Oly will modify your mags for about the same price.

I believe Oly charges $25 for each mag to do the conversion.

Quoted: I believe Oly charges $25 for each mag to do the conversion. [s]$35 each plus shipping, the last time I checked - a few months ago. But I recently heard a nasty rumor that they had quit doing these conversions! Anyone else heard that or know one way or the other for sure?[/s] My e-mail correspondence with them said $35, but $25 sounds much better - so I [b]GLADLY[/b] stand corrected! |

So just how do you comply with creating post ban mags by welding blocks onto the magazines that keep the preban sten mags from fitting into the weapon they were originally intended for?

My thoughts on that is that they have a don't ask, don't tell policy. Maybe they will correct me on that, but I think it is such a small market ATF is letting sleeping dogs lie. Besides ATF could always change their mind some day and use it to get search warrent and raid Oly-Arms to get their entire customer list. That would be a nice catch. Its a win-win stategy for ATF.

From what I've heard, the welds are not considered permanent - the welds can be ground off and the magazine will function in a Sten again, making it legal.
