Nealio Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 If anyone has some magazines with the Henning H-141 magazine extension on them, can you post a picture of what you had to do to shave the mag to get it to fit in the magazine gauge for USPSA?

bikerburgess Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 I checked mine with the guage and I did need to take a little bit pff the bac of the feed lips to make it fit. I used a belt sander and took off a little less than a 1/16th at the back tapering to nothing over about 1/4". it is just a little and it dosen't affect feeding.

Mike How much would you guess needed to be removed if you didn't blend it at all? 1/16" down x 1/8" wide? Trying to visualize this so I can make the modification without a gauge.. Thanks !

R. Batt Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 Nealio, I have some mags from Henning and they are filed down similarly to Mike's. We have a gauge at our club in Idaho Falls so if you get a chance to shoot one of our matches you could check your mags out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I'm trying to get them ready for the Idaho State match on Sunday. I don't want to have to modify them at the match. I measured my mags in my calipers and it looks like they are only maybe 1/32" too long, but I don't know how far forward on the lips I need to grind. If only someone could just take a picture of the feed lips for me, I'd be set! Thanks, - Aaron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bikerburgess Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 take off the amount needed at the back and taper the cut about 1/4" up the lips so you are taking the full amount at the back and nothing at 1/4" from the back. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nealio Posted August 16, 2010 Author Share Posted August 16, 2010 Allright, thanks for the info guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R. Batt Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 This isn't the best picture, but hopefully it helps. Like Mike said it tapers to nothing in about 1/4 of an inch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R. Batt Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 I'm not going to be able to make it to the match. I wish I could, though. Good luck. I'm sure it will be a great match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
