Does anyone have a template for the M1 carbine magazine?
I'm haphazardly fiddling with a pistol caliber Mauser build, and for curiositys sake I'm experimenting with M1 carbine magazines. Does anyone have something like a PDF or other printable template for a 5 round magazine? I am thinking of possibly making new side panels and soldering them into the action then forming the lips, etc. Yes I know I can cut an old mag up, but I'd like to examine using a different metal for the sides.

Anyway, If someone has a copy or knows where I could find one on the net I'd appreciate it, I haven't been too successful so far.


for every hour in front of the computer you should have 3 hours outside
