  • I'm assuming like the other poster your changing the receiver.

    Look for the updated V4 with the additional material in front of the rejection port.

    It will be some work to do it right but as long as your other hard parts are okay it's doable.

    Your other alternative is a metal receiver. Also doable, but more work for the rivets for an arguably better result.

  • Looks like a hammer follow device... Nothing to hold the trigger, no trip.

    It's been a available for 4 years and no one is talking about it, which says a lot.

  • I do it with STEP files in Fusion, I'm not familiar with other programs. What frame are you working with?

  • I like using a pocket for a m5 nut that's under the trigger. The m5 is smaller than the factory grip screw but if you're breaking m5 grip screws you're doing something very wrong 😅

    I really avoid using bolts in plastic threads if possible.

  • I'm using the Qidi software because there wasn't an orca update for it yet. The Qidi is orca based, seems to be 99% the same

  • BLC has a couple betas using the Bersa barrels as well. I haven't seen a complete build for one though.

  • How did you check/ set release timing?

  • Looks great! 👍

  • I'm not sure about compatibility but overall there isn't much out there for .45 magazines, I think partially due to lack of interest and platforms that need it.

  • Glad to hear you got it sorted. If be interested in checking out that mag when it's released.

  • Yeah, I just grabbed my thinned mag and it definitely won't fit in the Glock slide enough, by quite a bit. Factory Sten mags must be quite a bit thinner than the printed version

  • On hold. Printed trip bar version works but I had issues with the first metal bars, so that needs to be revisited. The metal is thinner than the plastic which affected release a bit.

    It's a fairly involved project and testing/development is slow going on my own, plus mag dump testing 308 gets expensive fast.

  • I know another ' almost sten mag mag' option sucks but the UK sten mags have excess material on top. I was able to mod them to fit a Ruger slide which is narrower than a Glock and the round has to be presented higher in the Ruger than a Glock.

    Terrible pic to show what I'm saying but you can see where the top is notched so the feed tower will fit in the slide and present the round at the right height

    Of course I may be wrong on what the issue is

  • You might want to try the franken without the ejector, someone else was having issues with that. The other internals are basically the same as a fmda dd19.2 which is pretty well established.

  • The above method works. You can also create the straight sections, then loft between them. This will allow tangency.

  • I used stainless spring wire from Amazon, I'm pretty sure mine was .8 or 1.0 for .22 mag springs

  • Oh SCS uploader caught it. Next place I looked at wanted me to contact for a quote. I was hoping another place may be to make it, otherwise I'll add the minimum amount of flange and finish the cut myself. Not sure how the factory does it, maybe its cut after being bent?

  • What gun parts does this need?
