Spare mag prices

[philpot 5,069]

I have paid out for both Rapid and FX Impact spare mags which are quite a price and thought at the time why Weihrauch have managed to keep their mag prices at a sensible level, well it is quite a time since I bought any mags for HW rifles and got a bit of a surprise when I asked for prices for my HW110k spare mags......................nearly £40 each.

Well I may live in Lincolnshire, but the Yorkshire blood in me started to froth up, £40 for an HW mag, no bloody way so started looking on flea bay to see what came up. After a while of looking for some s/h mags to no avail, I did wonder about these ballistic nylon mags for sale and at a few pence under £13 each. Sod it, I decided to try them as there were good comments being said about them so for £23.95 for two, I placed my order. 

Now at this price I thought it was worth a gamble and as there were no moving parts to the mag it seemed to be a safe bet providing the pellets fitted in and the fit into the gun was okay. I have been using them for the last few weeks with no issue at all so if you need either HW100 or 110/44 pistol mags, you could do worse than these.

I would stick with the traditional metal magazines as comes with these guns.

            My HW 100 KT .177 has seen a shed load of work over the last 6 years on the same magazine .

            My 100 ( bought new ) came with two magazines, of which i have only ever used one of them and never, ever a problem.

            I`m a Lancashire lad, far superior to Yorkshire lads, - just pay the £40 quid !    x

i might try one myself as £40 for an axsor mag is robbery

Well, got these two 177mags today.. Hopefully get to try them today in the garden, they certainly look well made, if they work as good as the made I,ll be a happy bunny (pardon the pun)  

[Phill-W68 547]

Well, tried the mags and the jsb heavy 4.52 and Polymags are loose in the magazine, the mags  fit the mag-well nice and snug they rotate and work with no problem but I think the holes where the pellet seats are a tad to big and as the skirt of the pellets are loose and the o-ring I don't think is sitting low enough, I can shake the pellets out, I tried the o-ring from the old mag but same problem, the recess where the o-ring sits I think is a tad to  Shallow, so might have to see if I can make the recess a little deeper as the jsb heavies are very accurate and don't want to start changing pellets....
