Aircooled6racer Posted April 12, 2017 Author Share Posted April 12, 2017 Hello: So what springs are you guys using in your Metalform Colt SMG 32 round mags? Uzi or Colt style from Wolff? Thanks, Eric Link to comment
Brian N. Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 ASCs with the TTI +3/4 glock pad seem to hold together well. Haven't noticed any issues using the standard spring. Link to comment
Bamboo Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 (edited) Been using the Uzi +5% for the metalforms with extended base pads. But I also don't know what the difference between the colt vs. uzi springs are. Maybe nothing? For the TTi +3/4 base pad on metalform mags the stock spring without the metal baseplate keeper seems to work well, but have one that has the Uzi +5% and it has been very reliable...so for me it is either way with the short basepad extension.

Aircooled6racer Posted April 13, 2017 Author Share Posted April 13, 2017 Hello: I think the Wolff Colt mag springs are the same shape as the original ones in Metalform and ASC mags. The Uzi Wolff springs are more rounded kinda like Glock springs are. I am not so sure on the ASC mags after this one. Thanks, Eric Link to comment
bwikel Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 BSPS is offering a base pad cover that appears to be 3D printed. It slips over the mag and base OEM base plate and could be a good option for 20 rd mags for reloading on the clock. http://benstoegerproshop.com/colt-smg-basepad-cover/ Link to comment
Bamboo Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 The Wolff p/n: 30175 Uzi mag springs have a square wind and fit the metalforms perfectly. Link to comment

They're 3D printed from TPU, a flexible material and are intended to provide a better grip on the 20's when reloading. They also protect the sheet metal floor plate if you're dropping them on concrete or rocks.. Link to comment
Aircooled6racer Posted April 21, 2017 Author Share Posted April 21, 2017 Hello: Well ASC came through and sent me another magazine. I have to send the old one back for them to see what happened. They supplied a shipping label also for the old mag. Thanks, Eric Link to comment

It does not add any rounds but makes the reload for classifiers faster and easier on the hands. Maybe good for IDPA or states with magazine round limits. Thanks, Eric Eric, is is this work with standard AR15 lower with mag adapter? Link to comment
Aircooled6racer Posted March 16, 2019 Author Share Posted March 16, 2019 Hello: It should work with a Hahn insert since that is what I have used before going to a QC10 lower. Thanks, Eric Link to comment
