Interesting. Thanks, I’m looking for a 10 round mag. I already have a large capacity mag for the pistol. The one you linked to is interesting since it appears someone cut that mag up to allow insertion of a tool to facilitate loading of 22LR ammo. I might acquire that mag and cut off the solid large cap mag I have, to make it a ten or eleven rounder!

[Still Thinking]

I had a devil of a time figuring out how to load the mag in my Mark III. The rim won’t fit through the front of the feed lips, so they cut a vertical slot in the top middle of the mag (it must feed out the same way), and it took me like 10 minutes to figure it out the first time. In my defense, it’s the first rimfire auto I’ve laid hands on in 20 years.

[Still Thinking]

It was really annoying too, cause the useless manual goes into nauseating detail on anything safety related and anything you would know from any other gun, but when it gets to loading the mag, it just says something like “insert rounds till mag is full” or whatever. The one thing you don’t already know, they blow off entirely.

putting the top cover back on an AK?*

Did you leave out the prior step?... ‘Slug down shot of Peasant Vodka.’

OOPS! Sorry, comrade.

Hey Ray, doesn't this remind you of a thread on another board? Something about getting drunk and polishing all the finish off of a XD-9?

I've owned this little shooter for several years.. but hadn't taken it out of the safe for a long time.. Just had the thought that I would put it in my grizzly man hands and take it apart and put it back together for no good reason.

"Grizzly Man Hands" ROFL! You have soft delicate sweeper operator hands that haven't seen hard work in years. Not to mention...small hands = small *%&*.

[Captain Ray]

first of all.. I wasnt that drunk.. and that XD-9 was begging to have the bluing polished off! And after I had the slide dura-coated it really did look good!

Second, My woman says my “hands” are just right!
