bababoris Posted June 3, 2022 Share Posted June 3, 2022 I recently purchase a set of original STI mags (in Brownells packaging) and found that a few of them have the followers come out through the top of the mag. I can force them back down but it certainly seems like they wont stay in the tube and probably should be replaced? If so can I buy a new set of followers and maybe springs? TIA.

outerlimits Posted June 3, 2022 Share Posted June 3, 2022 dumb question, but what caliber were the mags? if they were 40 or 45, the followers might be for 9/38 or 40. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

outerlimits Posted June 3, 2022 Share Posted June 3, 2022 if the followers come out the top, the feed lips are out of spec. str followers for gen 1 were 38/40, so they should not be coming out of the top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
