My Son-in-Law just bought one of the Atkinson & Marquart Ruger MK1 conversion guns in .32 S&W long Wadcutter.
It has only one magazine and it is very rough & crude. We tried to shoot it yesterday, but it does not feed from the mag at all. The gun does fire and is accurate. All research we have found is old and a dead end. May have to look at 3D printing the mag parts to start with. Looking for any info that may help to learn what magazine was used as a starting point.
Thanks

Chev William, I have been following your adventures on this project with facination. I am another of John Taylor's loyal repeat customers, but mostly in the Bunny Gun and .32 ACP projects. When I was at Ruger I attempted a .32 ACP conversion of a Mk2 pistol with mixed results and have since confined those efforts to putting a longer barrel on the Beretta 70, which is easy to do.
The ENEMY is listening.
HE wants to know what YOU know.
Keep it to yourself.
