I recently bought a used Maverick in .30 and wanted to shoot both .25 and .22 from it as well so I got barrels etc. but was still in the need for magazines. I looked at FX and if my original is any indication of what I dont like, well, FX did pretty well in turning me off.
Looking online, I found a lot of magazines but all were the same $50 and looked like you had to turn the cover for each pellet and these ole burnt up hands just cant do that! Then I saw a video of OriOn loading his magazines for the Panthera and discovered that he is using the magnetic covers for the Maverick too!
Stupid simple to load, the mags even stack together due to the magnets inside and that is a great extra!
I loaded both of the .22 mags up today and it took some real effort to get them into the gun, some may find this disconcerting and off-putting but I sailored on and did a few cycles of inserting/extracting then from the gun until they loosened up a bit.
Tentatively, I pushed the handle forward and fed a pellet into the breach, did some plinking at 100+ yards and enjoyed the feed and the accuracy which means that the magazine wasn't damaging the pellets at all. I ended up refilling the mags again and again since they were just so darn easy to load! Of course, you have to shoot what you load and boy did I have fun!
I paid $30 each for the mags, they took a week to get to me, I will be back for more!
