Backordered 6906 mag finally arrived, but....

[dave holl]

Luckily Midway has a good return policy. When I tried the new mag in my 6906, loaded or unloaded, the slide would not close, nor would the gun chamber a round. The mag wouldn't eject if it was inserted with slide closed. I didn't measure it but it appears the mag is a trifle too long. The new mag had no markings on it and seemed to be made of a rougher looking unpolished steel.
I called Midway to advise them that maybe that shipment of backordered mags was out of specs. She said their supplier was sure they were S&W factory mags. I don't think so.

I ordered 6 mags for my 69s from CDNN 3 weeks ago, they came 4 days later. In S&W packaging , all looked and functioned perfectly.

Hard to tell what the problem might be without a picture.

I've always had good luck with CDNN and Greg Cote
