[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Mag well problem on HK 94 clone

Posted: 3/3/2006 9:28:19 AM EDT

30 round mags "wobble" in the magwell, not tight at all. Anyone know how a magwell can be repaired or recommend a gunsmith that's familiar with this type of weapon?

Send it to Jason at IGF. If he can't fix it, it can't be fixed.

Is it a cast SW reciever? Those can be fixed with a small bead from a tig welder.
If it is a sheetmetal reciver it can be repaired the same way, however you have to watch for burn through.

A small bead of JB Weld may work, too. Might be less chance of damage that way.

Good point.

I Have this problem with the cast receiver on my clone also. Jayson built the gun for me, he said this is common with the cast receivers and not much you can do. Does not affect fuction on my gun at all. Have the same problem with my colt AR.

Unfortunately, it doesn't cycle through or sometimes doesn't properly feed the next round.
I'll give him call

Contacted Jason at IGF and was told he doesn't work on Hesse H94.
He also wasn't able to refer me to anyone that does. Anyone else knows a gunsmith that is knowledgable in HK94?

The Hesse gun is NOT an HK94 clone.

You should probably contact Hesse directly, rather than trying to find an HK smith to work on said gun.

I've tried that already and they wouldn't acknowledge that it was their rifle. That's why I'm asking for a HK gunsmith. I'm limiting it to someone familar w/HK because it "appears" to be a clone and all the searches I've done catagorize it as such. I know the it's not the same set up function wise but I think someone that is knowledgable in HK "type" weapons should be able to figure it out.

You dont need a smith to fix the issue. Like said before a littel jb weld in the magwell or a small run with a tig welder will do the trick. Just work it back down to were it fits right.

I would try the jb weld first as you can always grind it off if it doesnt work.
