Looking for a magazine button, spring and a follower too.

Anyone have a source?

I found one place that has them listed but the combined price is close to the price of a complete factory magazine.

Thanks.

You'd be better off just buying a new magazine. You won't save anything just trying to get everything but the body and baseplate as you found out.

I hate to throw away something that I can fix and I hate to buy $100-225 magazines. Prices on these magazines are crazy. The series II and III aren't nearly as bad but they don't interchange.

I may be able to get away with a generic magazine spring from Wolff but the follower and button need to be original.

As an update, it took a bit of time and about 60 phone calls/emails but I was able to locate what I needed for about half the cost of a nice original magazine.

Parts should be here next week.

Parts are here and installed and should work great.

A big thanks to Wendell at Outback Gun Parts for having what I needed to fix it.
