    Has anybody had any experience with the TripleK magazines for the High Standard HD-Military? Are they any good.

    Hi,

    Can anyone recommend person or shop that will tune up HS mags for SK100 and Supermatic 102?

    Thanks

    High Standard pistols are prone to feeding problems, because there isn't a integral feed ramp in the barrel.

    They has caused me a lot of aggravation in the past. The very front portion of the rear lips, is where most of the problems originate. The spacing between the very front of the rear lips should be just under 3/16".

    You need a dial caliper that is able to measure I.D.'s to set them correctly. If the measurement is over 3/16, the bullets will hit the top of the chamber. Under 3/16 they will hit the bottom.

    I use needle nose vise grips, with jaws padded with duct tape. To compress the very front of the lips. If the bullets are going in high. The shank of a 3/16" drill to separate the front of the lips. If going in low.

    Also found out, that round nose solid .22 bullets. Feed much better than hollow points. In High Standards with cranky magazines.

    Nice tips guys. CCI work best in my HD Military. I have 5 magazines for it, 4 of which I tuned. I had Sport King with a 12" barrel someone put on. It cycled flawlessly and was wonderfully accurate. I sold it (sadly) when I got out of rim fires for the most part many years ago.
