Triple K magazines

[Forty Rod]

Any opinions or experiences with them?

[JimBob]

I would not want to depend on them for self defense use.They are not of the fit and finish of OM mags.

[St. George]

The last I knew of them, they were being made in Mexico.

They're 'tinny' - without the weight of the manufacturer's product.

They're what you buy when you get an auto that's missing the original, and you absolutely, positively 'have' to have a clip, and can't wait for the right one.

What're you looking for?

Two more magazines for a Remington Model 51 in .32 acp.  Numrich is sold out and I haven't found anyone else that carries them except Triple K.

[St. George]

I'll keep my eye out - having owned one some time ago, I know what they look like.

I bet it'll be easier to find than those for the Savage .32, though - I'm always looking for spares.

Check some of the vendors on this list who have listings for the Mod.51-

Yeah.  I may be in the market for some of those, too, but not right away.  My next is a S&W 1913 auto pistol in .35 S&W.  I'm still negotiating a price on it.  It's a blued model in almost 100% condition.  I just know mags will be impossible for that one.

I'm having some serious issues with the Remington .32:  won't load from the magazine at all.

Have a similar problem with one of my Colt 1903 pocket hammerless guns in .32 acp.

I have recently acquired both of these guns and they look very good.  They just don't work.

Any suggestions for a gunsmith in my area of southern California who can work these over?

Triple K mags are a bit tinny, but you shouldn't notice it in those smaller mag bodies...
As for the finish and such I'd just dremmel it with the polishing wire wheel inside and out and then re-blue the enitre thing. For your existing magazines try Wolff springs for replacement springs.

Somewhat related   I am looking for a spare mag for a Mauser HsC in .32.

[Forty Rod]

Good luck.  I can't find magazines for anything much older than 30 years except 9mm and .45 stuff. 

Trying to find factory stripper clips for .35 Remington took 25 years to get six of them...and they got VERY expensive the last several years.

Got the Colt sorted out...definitely the after market mag.  Works fine with the original.

The Remington appears to be a mag problem, too.  It works fine if I only load five in the mag. If I load six, seven, or eight it will not pick them up.

My much newer Colt Government Model .380 run flawlessly with any factory .380 ammo I've put through it.

Sorry...for your luck. I seen the Remington that 40 needed, was listed.


I'm looking for a Squires Model 11 mag this a is the Bolt action not the semi auto.  The ladder is widley available

Triple K has the reputation of decent , but not great products. It often boils down to the individual fit between gun and mag, often they will work in one, but not another. I don't know if I would use them for CCW, but for a fun gun at the range they should be fine. Mec Gar used to make mags for the HSc and their stuff is first rate.

[Queasy Dillo]

I had a Triple K mag explode on me once. 

Seven rounds of .45ACP.  I went to seat it in a 1911 and when I took my hand away from the base of the magazine the floorplate detached (with gusto).  Threw cartridges everywhere.  I still have the pieces around here somewhere. 

Unless it was for a wallhangar I'm not sure I'd spend money on one.  And if it came free I'd mark it for range use only.
