Aircooled6racer Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 Hello: Looks like a salt shaker waiting to happen to me. You have to control the rounds in the mag with the follower and spring setup. If they get out of control-- salt shaker city. They do look cool though Thanks, Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julien Boit Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 I have one in a mag Brandon Strayer gave me a couple of months ago. They work Ok but they are a bit less tolerant to sand and dust than the plastic ones. It doesn't matter to me as this is one of my match magazines and it get cleaned every occasion.

BlueOvalBruin Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 I mentioned this in another thread, but I've been using these followers for a couple months now in the new style signature mags (limited .40 BTW). With 13 coil SV springs I'm getting 20 reloadable. I can almost get 21 in all 4 but not quite. I know another guy with the same followers and same signature mag bodies with 10 coil SV springs getting 21 reloadable. I get a round under the follower every once in a while but usually after the mag hits the ground on a reload. It has never affected function though the few times I've shot mags with rounds under the follower. I typically clean dropped mags between stages so dust and sand haven't caused me any problems.
