    FSRs and mags

    Are printed FSRs a decent analog if your trying to make a magazine? Id like to toy with an idea but I really dont like the price of fsr if im just looking to exercise an idea.

    A resin printer could probably produce a shape-centric analog, I'm not aware of any specific models to print from though, nor how accurate they are. FDM printers could have trouble producing fine enough and accurate enough surface details that could influence how the round behaves in the mag and breach (dragging/sliding/etc).

      I believe there are already FSR files floating around there.. i know quite a few people who use 3d printed rounds to test their designs… just confirm sizing post print
