Has anyone ever repaired this type of magazine? It came partially apart at the seam. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks Tom

    I have a 40 rounder split the same way, I haven't gotten around to fixing it. I'm gonna try melting some machine screws thru the housings on each side near the edge to clamp the 2 halfs back together where the split is.

    I've repaired several 25 & 50 rounders this way; pry apart enough to get a thin file (fingernail works) in between the parts and clean up the leftover or broken glue/plastic shards, put PVC blue primer on both halves and let dry(about 5 minutes), then get a tube of Plastic Surgery from Wally Marty and run a thin bead along the crack; let that dry, then build it up with 2-3 more coats, spraeading out wider each time for overlap. I've even drop-tested these mags afterwards, and so far; no problems!
