Stop. The Gen 1 mags have value even with the crack down the back. Go buy new OEM mags and keep the cracked ones. They add value to your Glock. Or sell them for $50 each cracked, $75-150 not.

Check your local flea markets and swap meets. I see 12 and 20 all the time complete for $50 or less ($25 is normal). But, I need a .410 bore model now.

Live 5.56 black have value. Sell them to all the guys with the can launchers.
VFW won't want them. We use 30-06 (1903's an M1's not 5.56mm M16).
Good luck!

A CMP marked barrel shouldn't have a three prong. Any buyer will want pics of all the barrel, FSB markings. As for the hand guards. If the teeth are 100% $60 for the set. If it looks used $45...

With a Glock style lower most uppers will run fine. BUT any bolt must have the "Glock" style mod. An unmodded Colt bolt won't work.
A cheap PSA upper will work fine.

Or put a USGI mag catch in it. To open USGI mags up on a drill press in takes 20 seconds. It will take much longer to take the mag a part an clean the shavings out.

That would be a L42A1 an so marked. If his cast was put in a V block and groves counted the size would be higher.

How many grooves does the barrel have? Now, one of the best nose riders I use in my T's is a NOE 316299 202Gr . I started with a Lyman 312299. But the 316 is easier to squeeze down.

Check fleapay and ar15 for new/used barrels. You'll see a few new OEM ones for sale cheap.

Try to get a few 316299 pills to try. I bet they will work in the P14.
