Family-owned MEC-GAR‘s magazines are the most trusted magazines for military weapons, law enforcement, personal defense, sports and tactical pistols. The key to the superior performance of MEC-GAR mags is the reliability of the working process, the result of proven experience in the designing and manufacturing of quality, reliable magazines. They work very closely with gun manufacturers to optimize each design, always bearing in mind that the consistent and reliable operation of semi-auto pistols depends largely on how well the magazine feeds and ramps the rounds. The choice of the right materials is of paramount importance . . .
Tensile strength, as well as elongation rate and chemical composition of all raw materials are carefully checked before being accepted for production. All their magazines are made from certified Carbon Steel AISI 1010 or 17-7 PH aircraft-grade stainless steel. They’re precision formed and boast perfectly interchangeable components, which are the result of the finest precision stamping, bending, and drawing operations.
