What is an Auto Mag
The Auto Mag was designed and patented in the 1970's by the late firearms enthusiast Harry Sanford. Harry wanted to create the biggest, baddest handgun in the world. The result was the very first .44 magnum caliber pistol in his very own semi-automatic design.
Made from then state-of-the-art 17-4 stainless steel alloy
Seven round capacity (eight with one up the pipe)
Slick space-age design with a time proven, time tested appeal
Superior accuracy with a solid sight system integral to the barrel
Damaged Auto MAG wheels can affect your car’s performance and safety. Cracks, bends, or corrosion can lead to tire issues or even accidents if left untreated.
Common Types of Damage to Auto MAG Wheels
Understanding the typical damage helps you recognize when to seek professional repair:
Curb Rash: Scratches and gouges from scraping curbs
Bent Rims: Impact from potholes or road debris causing deformation
Cracks: Stress fractures from accidents or prolonged wear
Corrosion: Oxidation due to exposure to salt, moisture, or chemicals
Paint or Finish Damage: Fading, peeling, or chipping of the wheel’s surface
Each type of damage requires a specific repair approach. For example, bent rims need precise reshaping, while cracks may require welding or replacement.
Why Choose a Nationwide Auto MAG Repair Specialist
The Auto Mag pistol, though over fifty years old, has a unique following akin to Browning's 1911 .45 ACP pistol. Unfortunately, it's design is much more complicated than the 1911. In comparison, the 1911 is equivical to a common automobile, bought from a car dealer, when the Auto Mag is a high performance racecar, bought from someone who really knows their hotrods.
