10 round mags

[Guest varmartin]

do any of you guys/galls know if the 10 shot.22WMR mags fit the CZ 17 HMR.

 

My 5 round standard issue mag is stamped 17HMR/.22WMR...so in theory they should !

 

Who uses what and where from ?

 

Thanks in advance.

I thinks so buddy, its the same case.

I wrote and asked CZ USA awhile back and asked tech if they would interchange

and they told me they wouldnt...and they would not tell me why they wouldnt

interchange....so rather than buy one in a 10 rd and test....I bought 2 5 rd mags

Like everybody else I knew the .22 mag and .17hmr are the same cases...only one

is necked down..

So I figured the diff might be OAL...I had a .22wmr and a .17hmr in one of the drawers

of my toolbox....Finally grabbed the dial calipers and measured them.

Both are the same for OAL...Then it occured to me why tech told me they wouldnt

work.

 

Its a marketing ploy....and its all about money.

 

If they told me it would work I most likely would have bought 1 or 2 ten rd mags...

But if they tell me it wont work....I would have to buy twice as many 5 rd mags

to be able to get the same on hand ammo capacity.

They made 2x the money off me by my puchasing two 5 rd mags instead of one

10 rd mag

 

And yes...I keep a few live rounds in my change drawer of my toolbox.

Doesnt everybody??
