Howa Mini - Comparison of Bottom Metal Upgrade

[Stinky Coyote]

I have both jefferson/hokey's bottom kits, the hinged and cz mag conversion. Both awesome, the hinged is the best most consistent feeding imo for all 4, weighs about 3 oz (same as factory bottom garbage/mag), the cz with mag is about 4 oz heavier and is a little stiff on first round or two then gets easier as you go and very light at the tail end. Both of mine feed great. I found the mag release on the cz kit a little long and for hunting I just shortened it up so it's harder to find/bump, that's about the only thing I could suggest to look at on that. My fav is the hinged bottom but glad I have both, I think for kids, in/out of truck type stuff and even scope on the detach mag makes more sense for kids. When I was running a red dot on it and had full open bridge the hinged is money...it actually loads super easy from top as well.

I suggest everyone buys both...

Hokey...I'll get you my email so you can send me a few points of the profits.

ps on cz mags, one can help things with spring and polishing feed lips to ease the first couple round feeding...so not really a thing...just was able to point out differences between them since I have both
