Felk MTF919 handgun question

[Mustang Jon]

I had someone ask me about this handgun. I'd never heard of it so I googled it. I can't seem to find much of anything about it. They are asking if it's a good gun and if it's got any value. It doesn't come with a magazine and I can't find one online. The few I've seen on auction sites have sold for $450 to $650 but there isn't any for sale right now, just previously ones that have sold. Does anyone have any knowledge of the handgun and/or possibly know where a magazine can be found. A real world value would be helpful as well. Thanks, you bunch of gun gurus and better users of Google.

My guess is that somebody saw a Glock and said "We can do that!" This is all I could find online of any relevance.

Felk MTF Series

Notes: Felk Firearms is an interesting company; they are a subsidiary of Felk Industries, which is actually an Australian company, though Felk Firearms is based in Virginia in the US. Felk’s pistols themselves are in fact built by subcontractor in Spain, though sold exclusively through the Virginia-based subsidiary.

Felk pistols themselves are similar to the Glock series, with a similar operation, polymer frame, and steel slides. Appearance is different, however, being more rounded and somewhat more ergonomic. They are also extremely safe weapons, with automatic firing pin safeties, automatic striker safeties, DAO operation, and a pivoting-blade type of manual safety. Unusual in a budget pistol, the trigger is adjustable for pull weight. All of the MTF series are essentially identical, since they may be changed in caliber simply by changing the magazine, barrel, and slide. The barrels are all 3.5 inches long. Sights are typically fixed and simple notch-and-blade types.

Twilight 2000 Notes: Having begun trading in 1998, Felk pistols do not exist in the Twilight 2000 timeline.

Sounds interesting. Now he just needs to find a magazine. I wonder if it would be worth picking up cheap in anticipation finding a magazine.

I used to own a Felk, but I never fired it because the clear hard plastic magazine was slightly cracked, and there were no replacements or reproductions that I could find. I sold it because if I was not going to shoot it, there was not much point to owning it, and it had no sentimental value.

My understanding, which could be wrong, was that the guns were actually made in Australia, by the Felk Company, which was a manufacturer of trailers. (I don't know what kind of trailers). I have seen them referred to as "the only automatic pistols made in Australia", I believe. How good they were, I could not tell you. Like all new guns from new companies, they probably had problems.

PS - "Pistols of the World", 4th Edition, agrees with Charlie Horse that the Felk pistols were made in Spain. I have not been able to find references for what I thought I had read about the Felk.

I found something online that said you could "easily" modify a Glock magazine to work in the Felk. I'm going to send them one to see if it can be done. We shall see.

Just wondering if you found out about adapting the Glock magazine?

Yes I have been able to get it to work very well with factory Glock mags but it doesn't like the aftermarket mags. Shoots pretty good too.

Was there a part number for the Glock magazine?. In got 3 plastic ones and their starting to crack. I'm not at all familiar with guns. So where would I go too get some help with this problem? The local sporting goods store? I'm pretty good with fixing stuff, I enjoy that. Thanks for your Help.
