Cheap rebuild kit?
Posted by dudeonhiscouch@reddit | Firearms | View on Reddit | 3 comments

I have a springfield hellcat 17 RD mag body but it doesn't have the spring, follower or baseplate/thumb extension, just the metal case/body for it all. After doing some research I found the rebuild kits are almost as expensive as a full mag and I didn't see the logic in getting one. Does anyone know of a cheap rebuild kit or way to rebuild these without paying about 35-40 dollars?

What happened to those parts?

Mags are consumables, like ammo. Use it, when you can’t keep using it, get more. Or preferably get more before you need it.

Probably will just have to cut your losses and buy a new mag, they have life spans.
