we 1911 metal spring follower

Does anybody know if there are any metal spring followers for we 1911 magazine's on the market today? These damn plastic ones are too brittle, a aluminum one seems like it would be a good upgrade but I can't find any.

The trick is to look for Marui parts. WE is simply a Marui copy. Redwolf has tons of them.

He means the spring in the mag, not the slide spring. Plus he wants a stronger follower, which the TM one won't work since its a different design. -1 reading skill

Try taking an intact one to a metal shop and see if they can custom fab them for you. Then sell them to other people that are tired of their follower flying at 9000 miles an hour out of their mag never to see again.


Or, if your skilled with CAD/ knows someone that is, make a copy in CAD, then look for a company to fab it in china on http://www.alibaba.com/ . Get lots and sell to peoples!

Thanks for the help, maybe I'll just dip it in adamantium.
