magazine

I was wondering if anyone has done anything to help the empty magazine slide out of my PA63 better and quicker when released.....Maybe its just my gun but when I go to drop the mag... it hangs up.....and you have to use your hand to pull it out.....It doesen't get stuck it just won't slide out by itself.....Any suggestions???

I don't think the PA63 has a retaining spring a la CZ75 so it might be worth taking the grips off & looking hard at any tight spots where the magazine contacts the frame.

Don't know if you already have a diagram but in case not:

I got a few that easily 'drop' out and a few that just pop out a little and I have to grab them. At one time, one was a bit twisted (I think I sat on it in my back pocket).

A little file work seems to be just what you need. Both of mine drop free.

Look for things intruding into the mag well, like grip screws. Common problem on 1911's.

I need an ejector part for my FEG PA-63 and am having a real tough time locating one. Anyone have one, or know where to get it?

the only thing i can think of that would hinder the free drop of the empty mag is the ejector tab on the mag itself... when the mag is full, the tab is down inside the mag walls, when its empty, its sticking out...

that being said, I have sanded/filed mine down a litte as well as filled a slight channel in the grip where the tab sticks out... this as completely removed the issue.
