I have a couple of 10 round mags (purchased during the hi-cap ban) for my SW40VE that I had never really looked at closely until tonight. After taking them apart it looks like the only thing that's keeping them from holding 14 or so rounds is the dimples on the sides, which prevent the follower from travelling any lower and accepting more than 10 rounds.
I thought about just cutting these dimples out with a Dremel, but the mag is scored on the front and back in a manner which will cause the mag to fall apart if the dimples are cut out.
I have a MIG welder and these appear to be steel mags, so would it be feasible to tack weld where the mag body is scored, so it won't fall apart? I assume I'd have to grind the welds down low enough to gain clearance and allow the mag to be inserted. Is this a dumb idea?
