Note:
-+I
The *magazine follower is a compks stamping made on a progressive die. To make a follower in a simpler way is to follow the Degtyarev DP LAIG approach - using a dummy round as the last one in the magazine. Thus a simple, flat follower with a dummy round soldered and/or screwed to it will replace a complicated stamping.
