Richie Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 Been searching on here to see what springs people use for the Mec Gar 17 rd (AFC coating and chrome) magazines for extra power springs? I have a few that I need to replace the springs etc... I have some +10% springs for the CZ sp01 18 rd magazines and I know they do not fit on the MecGar baseplate etc... Thanks in advance!

45 Raven Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 Don't know that the replacement springs for 17-round Mec Gar magazines are "extra power", but the ones that CZ Custom in Mesa, AZ sells for these magazines are sold under their SKU #30006. Hope this information is of use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PRanta Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 Extra power spring is a wrong fix for feeding problem. It just covers the actual problem. Check your guns breach face bottom edge, bottom of slide, extractor and feed ramp. All my CZ's are having reduced power magazine springs for greater capacity, more reliable locking and reduced power recoil spring (less friction). No feeding problems.

Richie Posted June 4, 2018 Author Share Posted June 4, 2018 Thanks everyone for the information. It actually isn't something I would call a feeding problem, more like the top round not being held securely during a slide lock reload (IDPA). I had it happen with a couple of the 18rd CZ mags, now same issue with some 17rd Mec Gar magazines. The +10% percent spring from CZC fixed the issue in the 18rd sp01 magazines though. Thanks everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PRanta Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 What happens to the top round? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richie Posted June 6, 2018 Author Share Posted June 6, 2018 Pops straight up in chamber, vertical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PRanta Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 With all mags? Only the first round? Also when mag is not fully loaded? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richie Posted June 7, 2018 Author Share Posted June 7, 2018 Only a couple of mags, yes, top round only, on reload. Mags are downloaded to 10 for IDPA. Thanks, appreciate it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
