  1. Just picked one up LNIB/unfired a few days ago. When i was looking at it, the mags looked like Mec-Gar 17rd AFC CZ mags, and sure enough they are.

    MG 17rd AFC with SP pads work.

    Sphinx vs Mec-Gar mags

    I noticed the MG mags with a notch at the bottom front work like the factory mags. My MG mags without the notch would fit, but were tight (~.010" larger F-R), and won't drop free.

  2. I was using factory mags, but when the issue showed up, I sold them and bought more MG AFC mags. I'm now running CZC nickel mags or MG AFC mags (factory guts) and SP Pads.

  3. I've heard some positive comments about the Mecgars, and I believe they may be less expensive than the CZ magazines (individually priced - not on a per unit basis in the 3-packs of CZ mags). Does anyone know if there is a replacement base pad for the 18 round CZ magazines that might solve the mentioned problems?

    Thanks, Snapcap

    The problem is usually solved with +10% springs. Springer Precision sell pads for the 18's.

    Here's 2 sets of my MG/SP mags.

  4. I use the MecGar 17rd mags with SP pads. I also have a set of CZC Plated mags with SP pads.

    I had issues with the factory mag basepad coming off during a reload.

  5. "Just think of all the Accu Shadows that will be going up for sale."

    That's what I'm hoping for! I wore my brother's hand-me-downs (as long as they are in good condition).

    Could even make one a CO gun to match my Production gun.
  6. Someone here on Enos better get one, and give us all a detailed review!!!

    Looks like 2 are gone, so we should be seeing a review soon.
