New ribbed design!
M-Tek20 20 round extended double stack 22lr magazine for the Tikka T1x rifle.
Tikkas are excellent rifles. Like most rimfire rifles they come with a single stack magazine. However, the magazine well is wide enough for a double stack magazine.
After going through more than 50 iterations I was able to design a double stacked rimfire 22lr magazine that is well suited for 3D printing and feeds reliably.
The magazine is about the same length as a Glock 19 magazine despite having a capacity of 20 rounds of 22lr affording you lots of fun per mag!
The magazine has a viewing holes on the side in five round increments so you can quickly see how many you have loaded.
Durability
All of our magazines are 3D printed from polycarbonate (PC).
Polycarbonate is a tough and durable engineering filament. It has a high impact resistance, very high strength and can resist temperatures in excess of 100 °C.
We have had no durability issues in all of our testing and use of these magazines.
The magazine body has thick feed lips and walls and features a ribbed design that offers extra rigidity.
We have cycled over a 1000 rounds through a magazine and seen no wear on the feed lips. The low friction nature and high wear resistance of PC plastic that these are made out of helps with that.
While we don’t recommend it we have drop tested these on all sorts of surfaces including concrete and haven’t had a single one break.
If all else fails there is a two year warranty for any breakages occurring from normal usage of the magazines.
Maintenance (every 500 rounds or when necessary)
- Disassemble the magazine and wipe dirt off with a cloth or a paper towel.
- In our experience normal bearing grease, ie. lithium grease works best. Silicones, oils, and even some PTFE dry lubricants tend to gum up the magazine.
- Apply a light coat of grease on the front and rear surfaces of the follower.
Made in Finland.
