A shout out here before I order one. Looking for the magazine lock (one mounting hole / late version). If someone has a spare I need it! I am converting my 541X to use the steel magazines and replacing the nylon mags I currently use.

On a side note I will e selling two (2) new Remington 10 shot and one 5 shot nylon mag shortly.

Thanks~

Don't buy a magazine lock spring from Gun Parts, they are crappy reproductions that don't work.

I agree the only bad point on the 541X is the plastic mag. I already shortened the existing mag guide / ejector. I am out of flat spring steel stock so I am torn to either order stock to make one or buy one. I will likely end up making one.

Thanks for the head up on the gunparts part.

And are the steel replacements (6x and 10x) made by Wisner and sold by folks like Brownells the best available?

I just purchased two of the Wisner's from Brownells and they look nice. Very good quality and the rounds sit well in the mags.

I have one each original flush and extended magazines which is why I asked. Been thinking of getting a few more and the Wisners looked good.

Well I found an original Remington mag. lock that I ordered. I look forward to getting rid of the plastic mags for good shortly.
