cooey/lakefeild/savage model 64 high cap mags

My father says they used to make 15 or 20rd magazines for them.
I would say he's mixing them up with something else though.
 
I did talk to an older fellow that tried to adapt another brand of mag into the Cooey. It was a steel mag and 17 shot. It took a lot of work to modify the mag lips etc. so the Cooey would "reload without too much fuss" ...never did work right he said. Anyhow he tried it in the field but bumped it on the ground and it snapped the white metal mag well and ended his trip.

There were large capacity mags that looked similar to the Cooey "keyhole shape" but cannot remember the brand of gun they fit.
 
i was actuially thinking about buying some savage 64 mags and welding two together or something, i saw it on done on youtube with a dragonov (spelled wrong probley lol)
 
the savage mags are not steel...they are what used to be called white metal. Very soft and brittle...like a grainy aluminum many early car engine parts were made of it.. Even when parts were crack on an old engine, they could not be repaired. You may succeed with epoxy but what would you gain really?
 
I wouldn't be surprised if a CGNer decided to make some in the future.
CGNers seem to making lots of things lately.
