Re: Magazine repair question

I was kind of taking for granted that the FEG can take the Walther mags. They are very similar pistols and if there were one notch above clone, I think it would apply to the FEGs. The patents for the Walthers expired many years ago where any pistolmaker could copy them without legal issues.

If the mags are the same I'd look into some of the large retailers of mags twho might have the Mec-Gars for the PP and PPk. Some years ago when they were still available I could have picked one up for under $200. I regret not doing so. ;-)

Re: Magazine repair question

I suspect that your FEG is a Walther PP clone? Wolff should definitely have mag springs and if it is as old as it sounds, a new recoil spring as was suggested by flintknapper, would definitely be worth adding to the order.

Just an FYI, but the FEG clones of the Walther PP & PPk were very highly regarded. Some felt that they were as good as the Walthers, but had better triggers. Should be great fun if you can get it running right; I'm optimistic that you can. ;-)

Re: Magazine repair question

Mec-Gar mags should be easy enough to find and very high quality as we know they make mags for many manufacturers in both Europe and the US. It's a real shame that FEG isn't in business today. I had one of the Hi-Power clones that had the rib on the slide and it was probably as accurate as any 9mm I've ever shot. I can't say for sure, but I've never read anything to suggest that Mec-Gar was making mags for FEG. I would, however, bet that they supply them to Walther. That's what I'd try if you could use some spare mags. Wolffe Springs if not. ;-)
