It you're ha ing trouble with the front ling
 s~i\el falling out, it means the spring pin's
 getting weak like ill naturally do after a
 spell. No sweat. though. Get sour armorer to
 stake it thisawa .
 Stick the spring pin through the swvsel. mak-
 ing sure both ends of the pin are about flush ith
 the outside surfaces. Then take a center punch
 and rap the area about 1/ 16 inch from the swivel
 spring hole. Stake both ends for good measure.

 TIP

 Take care of your magazines-and hang on
to 'em. Sure, there're plenty of 'em in supply- vC
world-wide--but they could get mighty scarce \/
in your own sector. So, protect 'em from dents i
(soft aluminum like that can't take rough treat- \
ment)-and especially, remember to bring
those "empties" back. The one you save just
might save you some day.
