I shot it 100 rounds and zero problems. The new plastic floor plate is not quite as tight as the original 59 series of MecGar( I have one for my 559) but Robertson's redo works perfectly in my 669, drops free and no misfires in or out.
Lord knows I am no fan of Robertson Trading Post for their pitiful misinformation and self-serving restrictions regarding pre-ban vs. post-ban magazines, but this is something I may be forced to look into after Las Vegas. Moonbat MA is getting ready to pull a CA-type move and attempt to ban our pre-1994 hi-cap magazines. That would leave me with a whole lot of S&W 1st & 3rd Gen hi-cap pistols and precious few legal magazines for them.

Please post some pix when you can. I'm well aware of the Mec-Gar 5900-series 10-rounders and I guess I'll be buying some of them soon enough. The cut down versions offered by Robertson Trading Post? I'm less than thrilled but I might have to buy some of them as well.
