joshua Posted June 22, 2003 Share Posted June 22, 2003 I can't spend anymore on hi-cap mags (at 85-100 per pop plus all the upgrades needed like basepad and wolffe springs) Are the Pro-mag 10 round magazines for Para P16 good enough for competition use. I'll just start shooting Limited 10. Josh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bucky Posted June 23, 2003 Share Posted June 23, 2003 Josh, When I shot a Caspian .40, all you can get where Pro Mags (the ones Fred Craig sold). The metal they use is a little softer than most factory mags, but I actually liked them 'cause they were really easy to tune and polish up. Once I did, they were 100%. (Can't say the same for my STI.) Overall they are pretty good, and a great value. I just picked a couple up for my Beretta. Again, had to do a bit of tweaking, but now they run great. -- Bucky.

joshua Posted June 24, 2003 Author Share Posted June 24, 2003 Thanks for the info. I should've known that since I shoot a Caspian Hicap. I ordered a couple of promag for my para and I will post my experience here once I start using them in club matches. josh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joshua Posted July 2, 2003 Author Share Posted July 2, 2003 Got 2 of the promag 10 round mags but haven't been able to use them because the base pads have too much material preventing full insertion in my Para with a Dawson aluminum mag well. Looks like major reduction is needed on the sides of the basepads. The spring in the mags are skinny like the ones used in 9/40 1911 single stack mags. The follower seems to look good and should feed well. I think the mag bodies are painted with teflon. Will post again once I get them modified so I can use them in my limited gun. josh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
