All,
i have several savage rifles but it has been awhile since I got a new one. Well I went ahead and ordered my wife a savage lady hunter model which is basically like the savage 14/114 American except with a stock cut for a woman. When it came it I was surprised to find the magazines are metal and plastic and even worse what holds them in is plastic. I can definitely see this tab breaking. Well I was going to order my wife an extra magazine as to prevent a hunt being ruined because her magazine broke. Before I go and order it is there any other solution which is not crazy expensive to make this magazine metal or are there aftermarket mags built better? Thanks!
