hey guys,
anyone know if there are rebuild kits out there for the straight wall 20-rd USGI mags?? the ones i've found so far are for the curved 20-rounders with a note saying "green follower can be modded to work in straight wall 20 as well" or someting to that effect. was wondering if anyone DID make a rebuild/refurb kit for the older style 20s or if anyone knew what is needed adn how hard it is to do to make the green follower work correctly in the straight 20?
as part of the "A1 clone" project i'm working on for SWMBO she adn i picked up a few decent condition used USGI 20s at the gunshow today, along with a buffer assembly, (couldn't find an A1 stock though so that's on the list for "order after friday") and it wasn't untill after we paid that i realized that the mags had metal followers in them.
i know the green plastic followers are supped to be better, but how much of a difference does it make btw?
