** Remember only GI 15rd mags can be considered reliable, if it malfunctions with a 30rder don't blame the gun. |
Wrong.. if it malfunctions with a GI 30 rounder.. you might just need the mag catch with the protrusion that was designed for use with 30rnd mags..... |
Not wrong. The GI 15rd mags will work well in every carbine, no matter what make, vintage, mag catch, etc, this cant be said for GI 30 rounders.
Even with the correct catch the GI 30 round mags often malfunction. There is a fix that involves a stronger spring. The GI 30rd springs were marginal when new...Don't be surprised if a 50+ year old mag needs a little help. Thirty+ years ago I ran ran into this problem with new in wrapper GI 30rd mags, I have never ever had a problem with the GI 15 rounders.
At least the genuine 30rd mags can be made to work reliably.
Commercial crap 30 rounders often cant be made to work period.
** I'll post a link to the mag fix later, if I can find it.
