Open1215 Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 (edited) Hello all. I picked up my new svi today. I know I am at least the 3rd owner. I have a few questions here. I plan on sending an email to infinity tomorrow to see if it was a svi build or svi frame. Ok. Has anyone had a plastic guide rod with shock buffer? Do they work? I put 70 rounds through it today and it ran well but I don't want an issue down the road. I put in a steel one to be sale. The slide is a caspian. I believe that it is a replacement. The fit is nice, it just looks odd. The rear of the slide looks like it was topped a small amount ant the rest is all rounded. The slide needs a racker, it is very hard to use w my bum hand. Last question. It came with 3 mags. 2 are old svi mags and one is a 126mm sti. They are the shorter old mags. Comparing the tubes the 170 looks 5mm short as does the 140mm. I put on a Dawson's pad and grams spring/follower and got a tight 27??? Is there a major combo for the short tubes or should I sell them and get sti mags? The barrel doesn't say infinity, it is a C/P ramp. 4 port with infinity comp Thank you for the help! http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/09/08/b9044b8d8c5c2ae1a72b20713e697a6d.jpg Edited September 9, 2015 by Open1215 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aircooled6racer Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 Hello: Your mags could be the old mags that are shorter than the current ones. No problem with them you just have to use different base pads to get the maximum rounds in them. I am talking about the SVI mags mostly. Get rid of the shock buff. Thanks, Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glk21C Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 you need to measure the back side of the tube in mm. then get a grams bp to get you to 171.25mm. you probably need a 7mm or 11mm based on your picture, assuming that is a 2.5 or 3mm one you have on there now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grendel Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 Yes they are old svi mags. What is the best combo to use? I have one of those preban? Svi magazines, i've put one of the old Para +2 basepad on it, and it gives me 23 rounds of 9mm with a grams follower kit look pretty good as well ..
