Like the title says I have an old 12 gauge Mec 400 Super Speeder. It is missing part number 448-12, the crimping sleeve. I am well aware that these were designed for the old paper shotgun shells but Mec came out with an add on piece that was a crimp starter so you could use the plastic hulls. I have that part so I'm good there. But I'm missing the crimping sleeve to finish the crimp. A quick google search leads me to believe that the crimping sleeve is a common missing part with these old reloaders and Mec no longer makes them. If no one knows where I could find one, does anyone know where I would find the specs on this part so I could try to have one made? Anyone have one that I could borrow to have the local machine shop copy?
If not anyone know where I could find a used 12 gauge Mec that isn't missing parts for under $50.
