whiskey6eod Posted April 14, 2015 Report Share Posted April 14, 2015 (edited) All Sold........... I have a box of mostly unissued 30rd magazines that I'd like to sell. These are mainly Seymour, Auto Ord and Crosby. I'm calling them "used" - but they are, for the most part, unissued and fresh out of the wax paper. No dents, dings or rust. Satisfaction guaranteed. I've been selling them on CMP Forum - my "handle" is the same as it is here - lots of positive feedback. Buy with confidence. $25 each shipped Email me at whitmerps@yahoo.com to order. Thanks Edited June 12, 2015 by whiskey6eod 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whiskey6eod Posted April 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2015 Much appreciated - I hope you enjoy them. I have a box of 20 rd Colt mags I'm sorting through now - keep your eyes open - they'll be available soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DixieTriggerMan Posted May 1, 2015 Report Share Posted May 1, 2015 I just bought 6 of these magazines (4 Seymour and 2 Crosby) and agree with what Kilroy posted above. The ones I received appear to be 100% unused, are in perfect condition, and I received them in just a few days. An excellent purchase for my PKed 1928 Westie.

anticus Posted May 10, 2015 Report Share Posted May 10, 2015 Great deal on the mags. My Seymours arrived nice and newish in the grease. Now, what's the best way to ungrease them ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piep Posted May 10, 2015 Report Share Posted May 10, 2015 Spray on Carb cleaner works great.Spray the mag and the rag then wipe the outside down.Then take apart and do the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just get some old dish towels and go to it. That's part of the fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kilroy Posted May 12, 2015 Report Share Posted May 12, 2015 Boiling hot water. Or, as one veteran told me they would remove cosmoline by heating gasoline... Good luck if you go that route. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anticus Posted May 12, 2015 Report Share Posted May 12, 2015 Thanks ! Think I'll go with he carb cleaner -sounds safe ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whiskey6eod Posted May 12, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2015 The seller does not endorse the heating of flammable liquids...............(smile) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSU Tiger Posted May 13, 2015 Report Share Posted May 13, 2015 Brake cleaner would probably work well. I don't know what it would do to the finish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kilroy Posted May 13, 2015 Report Share Posted May 13, 2015 The seller does not endorse the heating of flammable liquids...............(smile)I should add that I don't either... I'm just saying what one World War II veteran told me they did.... Story went that they got new guns from the ordnance battalion that were soaked with cosmoline and one GI said "Hey gasoline works great to remove this stuff if we soak it!" then they went to do it in some cold place (maybe Belgium in December of '44?) and the gasoline wasn't cutting it. They started giving the wise guy crap and he came back with "well last time it was stateside and the gas was a lot hotter... Let's heat it over a potbelly stove". So they did. And he said it worked.

whiskey6eod Posted May 13, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 13, 2015 I have no doubt the heating would be effective Kilroy. I've used boiling hot water and gotten good results. I've used gas as well and gotten good results. But - I've never tried heated gas. (smile). All good my friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ron_brock Posted May 13, 2015 Report Share Posted May 13, 2015 (edited) I have no doubt the heating would be effective Kilroy. I've used boiling hot water and gotten good results. I've used gas as well and gotten good results. But - I've never tried heated gas. (smile). All good my friend.I believe you want to use a low flame when heating gasoline😜. Kinda like wearing a wool sweater with your 1989 Crown Vic with velour interior and talking on the cell phone while refueling as your fresh stogie is smoldering in your hand. Obviously due to the low flash point of gasoline fumes it is not a safe cleaner albeit effective. I wonder if the vets tale was distorted slightly over the years and they were using diesel or other fuel. Either way, we have developed safer means to dissolve cosmoline over the years. I just use mineral spirits in a parts cleaning tank. RonEdited as auto correct doesn't like cosmoline either.

mnshooter Posted May 13, 2015 Report Share Posted May 13, 2015 (edited) One more method: Warm them with a heat gun or hair dryer; most of the cosmoline will wipe off easily. WD-40 (1002 uses) does a good job of removing the rest.Then use the brake or carb cleaner for a final cleaning.Don't leave WD in the magazines; it has a reputation for making dead primers.Don't breathe brake drum cleaner; it has a reputation for making dead brain cells.

reconbob Posted May 14, 2015 Report Share Posted May 14, 2015 I got some of these mags and they are A1. The ones I received had a thin clear grease that is easilywiped off as opposed to a heavy, thick grease like cosmoline. So if the other mags are like the ones I gotthey are easily cleaned.

LSU Tiger Posted May 22, 2015 Report Share Posted May 22, 2015 My six look like they were made an hour ago. Haven't tried to clean them, why tempt fate until I get a Thompson? As Bob said, it is a thin grease that should come off easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunfighter48 Posted June 1, 2015 Report Share Posted June 1, 2015 I just got 4 30rd mags delivered today and they are great, excellent condition. Thin coating of grease, should be easy to clean and the next two days are my days off from work. Guess what I'll be doing!! wiskey6eod was a great guy to do business with and provided great service. I may be ordering a couple of 20rd mags towards the end of June if he has any left by then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
