Magazine brake
« on: October 06, 2017, 06:09:34 PM »
Has anyone changed the magazine brake in their SP01 Shadow or Shadow 2 to the stainless one?  Does it make a difference in mags dropping freely?

I have taken and smoothed the brake out with scotch brite and 1800 grit sandpaper. But Since I went to all stainless mags I've haven't had any issues with any of those mags not dropping free.

What kind of mags are you using? With Mecgar mags, I haven't experienced any issues with the mags dropping free. But the tubes are worked in from my previous CZ's prior to switching to the Shadow2

It's been hit and miss with mine. Also, did you check the grip screws? Get 1 a tad too long and it can mess with how the mag drops.
