Good deal on model 59 Mags!!

Took the mags apart last night, all the springs seem to have a twist to them. I don't recall my other 59 mags having that feature. Is that a LE thing or is my straight spring memory a little fuzzy?

Of the 2 I took apart, one had a twisty spring. Made it a little more fun to put back together but seemed to work just as well as the other?

Got my order today in the mail. Ordered last Friday, so a pretty good turn around. The mags look to be in good shape, obviously used, but do not appear to have been abused. All lock in, lock the slide open, and eject from the gun with no issues. Now, if I could only locate some ammo at a reasonable price.... Thanks for the heads up on this deal. That's what I love about this site, we are all great enablers for our common avocation.

So my order finally arrived today! It took one week, although they didn't ship until Friday afternoon via USPS 2-day priority. The mags were packed loose in a small cardboard box, I suppose it's better than the unpadded plastic bags lots of folks are shipping things in these days.

Of the ten mags I received, four were LE-GOV restricted marked mags, so not too bad. All were pretty dirty, I'd say they had never been cleaned internally.

All locked in and actuated the slide stop firmly. After cleaning them up only one had a rusty mag spring (which cleaned up OK), the rest were just very grimy. All had the proper factory red coated spring, the orange followers cleaned up nicely. Please note the photo of the orange followers is BEFORE I cleaned them.

Only one had much of any rust on the outside of the body, and that was quickly taken care of with Kroil Oil and OOOO steel wool.

Loading them up now for some serious range time tomorrow with the rusty wondertwins 5903 pistols I received last week from Bud's. I bet these mags came from the same place as those pistols, most likely PR.

Decent deal on these 9mm hi-cap mags, I'd buy a few to salt away even if you don't currently own a 5900 series pistol. Like money in the bank.

Stay Safe

Thanks, I just bought a 5943 TSW and it came with 10 round mags, I've been looking to pick up some 15 rounders and these are a good deal.

I received my order on Monday and in the mix of magazines was one which had been chrome plated! It is so much shiner that the others. Since my pistol is stainless, I'd prefer the stainless mag. over the chromed one.


So if any would like to trade even-up a stainless mag for a chromed plated mag., please contact me.
