256 Ferret - where to find magazine

[RocinanteX1]

Hi. I recently inherited some guns, including a 256 Ferret. It did not include a magazine, and so I have been looking online where to find one, but am having no luck. Any ideas on where I might source one?

Just so people know what you are talking about, here is an article on the Universal Ferret 256/256 Win Mag M1 variant.

Sorry, I never heard of this weapon until I glanced at your post.

Did you notice these guys talking about 3D printed magazine for that gun?

Now to track down some testers! 256 Ferret 3D printed mag! : r/fosscad (reddit.com)

The original post got removed for some reason, but perhaps you can contact the people there to find out about it.

Thanks Rogerbutthead. I will see if I can contact that guy.

I can remember guys using GI Carbine mags, fabricating a flat follower, and making it into a single stack. Some one did a "How To" years back, try a search for that.
