Rowans have the modified magazine ready and I am due to do the final tests over the next couple of days. If all is well then they will be released for sale.
We do however, have a slight problem. The gun Rowan Engineering obtained for their own factory testing, an XS78 (same as the QB78 ) seems to have a somewhat less than horizintal breech flat. The magazine sits on this flat and is held in position by a magnet and a lip at the top rear of the retaining bracket. The fact that the breech flat on this gun isn't horizontal is causing the magazine to sit out of true centre by about 2mm. Is this a common fault on these guns as it's not something I've ever come across before or are we looking at a one off manufacturing fault? It's hard to see what Rowan Engineering can actually do about such a fault as in my opinion all they can do is manufacture their magazine to fit the correct specification for the gun. I've tried it on the XS78, QB78 and AR2078 and it's been fine; but the breeches haven't shown any sign of this fault. I'm waiting for a photo of the fault and as soon as I get it I'll post a link.
If anyone can shed any light on this problem we would appreciate it.
