Hi,
I just bought my second Auto Mag, and unfortunately it is naked.
I would like to find an original box and accessories.

If you can help, let me know.
Thanks.

That could take a bit. Ebay might be the best place, but I can't remember seeing one in the past few years
Good luck
Mark

Hi John,

I have some cases.  They are in various conditions.  Some have missing latches, missing handles, cracked back-spline and all have no foam.  None are in "complete" condition (latch, handle, etc).

I also have a couple foam inserts left.  I'd have to check if they are single-magazine style, or 2-magazine styles.  See here for what it is:

I also have some oil bottles and tool pouches with tools.

The question then becomes, can these be legally shipped to France without issue, legalities, etc?

Let me take some picts tomorrow and send them via PM if you are still looking.

If you were happy and you knew it, would you clap your hands?

Hi,
I don't mind a missing handle box.
But I don't see why a plastic box would be ITAR classified Wink

You can PM when ready.
Thanks.

There is a few people selling parts and a case that looks correct on Ebay.  If someone is making case decals you could probably piece something together.

I guess I missed it. I didn't find one on ebay.

It's not exact, but it's kind of close.

Thanks for the link.
Look like the exact same crap box as the one used to "protect" our precious Auto Mags Smile

I still don't get how one of the best pistol ever, was packed in the worst package ever...

EDIT: After a second look I noticed few differences indeed.
But it's close enough for me (especially for $20).

I just received the box.
Size is slightly off, but color is really different.
It's more gray than black:


Well... with an original sticker on it, as said before: it's close enough Smile

There are two ways to get that black collour again.

One, Try WD40 (spray-oil), spray it on and rubb it off with a cotton cloth. This will make the plastic darker.

Option two is sort of re-collor it with bumper-black Turtle wax. You can find this at the auto-motive store.
It is made to get the jetblack collour again on a car's plastic bumpers. I'm sure you will remember the old Renault espace with those big black PVC bumpers, when new they were jetblack. Shortly after the bumpers turned into a dull gray finnish... Turtlle wax bumperblack makes them like new again.
Try on a small spot on the inside af the case to be sure...

Thanks but I don't think this box is discolored.
I think it was made in another hue.
But I could try your tips to darken it, even if I don't mind the differences.

Just finished fixing up my original Auto Mag box. It has original foam, but don’t store the pistol in this. Replacement handle from ebay and micro piano hinges from amazon.

Handle.

Interior with accessories. You can just see the screws from the hinge. They don’t effect the way the lid works and don’t interfere with the gun, although I may grind them down a bit.
