Magazine latch 7600

Post by bendyball »

I recently bought a 7600 Police in .308 which I will be using to hunt pigs this September in Cape York. The Cape is in far north Queensland and has some of the best pig hunting in the world. Mobs of as many as 700 pigs have been sighted in the past. There has been a good season this year and we are expecting good hunting. It will take us three and a half days driving to get there and our camp is very remote being about two hours drive to the nearest telephone (no mobiles this far out) and about six hours to the nearest town.

My new rifle should be ideal. I have added a 10 round Eagle magazine and a Tasco red dot. Most shots will be less than 50 yards and many will be less than 10. We are also hoping to get onto some scrub bulls and brumbies.

Now for the question (I know you were holding your breath!). I am not happy with the factory magazine release which is too small especially for use in the sticky tropics at the Top End. Where can I get a better magazine latch?

Many thanks, Ben.
