daruss Posted July 22, 2015 Report Share Posted July 22, 2015 I would like to know what magazines can be converted to fit an MP40. Also, I need to know how to make the modification.. I heard Vigneron mags work, but I don't know if it's true.. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DZelenka Posted July 22, 2015 Report Share Posted July 22, 2015 (edited) A poorly converted Vigneron mag was included with my recent MP40 purchase. I say poorly converted because the top had not quite been reduced in size to easily fit in the magazine well. I pushed it in and it worked fine. I asked my smith to use a sander on it until it fits. I may pick up another one to experiment with. If it works, I will probably buy a few for range mags. A better question is how well do the Vigneron mag loaders work?Dan Edited July 22, 2015 by DZelenka Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoscoeTurner Posted July 22, 2015 Report Share Posted July 22, 2015 What is wrong with just using MP40 magazines? They are not that hard to find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DZelenka Posted July 22, 2015 Report Share Posted July 22, 2015 $14 vs $100 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kubelspeilen Posted July 22, 2015 Report Share Posted July 22, 2015 $14 vs $100Agreed... I have 6 and after a little more refinement I'll blue the tops and off to my next battle I will go.. I bought a dozen originals for 25 each 12 years ago and had no idea they'd climbed so much in price! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DZelenka Posted July 22, 2015 Report Share Posted July 22, 2015 How much do you need to remove? Or do you just sand it until it fits? No other mods necessary? Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kubelspeilen Posted July 24, 2015 Report Share Posted July 24, 2015 For mine.. The armorer that sold them to me said take a flapper wheel. All of mine are heavily painted. The flapper helped but the belt sander did the trick.. Just tried to keep it even and trial fit as I went until they worked like the originals... Im bluing them instead of repaint. I may park a few when I finish my tube for my BNZ 44 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
