SOPMOD 254 Posted April 17, 2009 Report Share Posted April 17, 2009 Their 223 adapter does not work with the $15 AR mags. It seems it only works with the plastic AR mags (pmags,ect), which kinda defeats the purpose, IMHO. P-Mags are $15 mags unless you are getting gouged in the panic. P-Mags were made to be a cheap alternative to HK high reliability mags and still sell to those with deep enough pockets to preorder a hundreds of them for less than $13 each wholesale.

The adapter is designed to use all USGI Mil-Spec AR mags, Colt 20's and others with extended feed lips is what is not compatible. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Pointer55 1 Posted April 18, 2009 Report Share Posted April 18, 2009 O ok, I see what you mean by the extended mag lips. couldn't one just trim the "extended" portion off and make them fit too? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, you can....... some of our customers have already done so. Thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SCMA-1 0 Posted April 20, 2009 Report Share Posted April 20, 2009 I know there are a ton of questions an as soon as the paperwork is signed of on the pattend I will proably then let the cat out of the bag. Until then our lips are sealed. I'm on "cat" watch. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
reoiv 1 Posted April 21, 2009 Report Share Posted April 21, 2009 hurry up with the paper work already I'm dying to see what your idea is. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kevins7189 1 Posted April 21, 2009 Report Share Posted April 21, 2009 will this "new idea" be carried over to the .223 adapter as well? I am considering getting one (for .308 and .223) but if there is gong to be something new on the horizon I might wait. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

headshot 52 Posted May 22, 2009 Report Share Posted May 22, 2009 Im betting it's a adapter that goes on every mag. This would be a great idea. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JK-47 33 Posted May 22, 2009 Report Share Posted May 22, 2009 Ok.... Let me put it this way, if everything keeps going like it is you all will have the cheapest alternative to mag versatility with no modifications to the rifle. Let me highlite the key points again..... Cheapest alternative and no modifications. If that is not something to get happy about I don't know what is. Ok, so what is an alternative to versatility? More of the same? It sounds like you are rolling out your own Saiga .308 mags. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Then again he stated this would be an alternative. Headshot might be on the right track but who knows. Got my attention tho. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cscharlie 107 Posted May 22, 2009 Report Share Posted May 22, 2009 It's probly an adapter that locks inplace of a mag that allows belt feed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Paladin 37 Posted May 22, 2009 Report Share Posted May 22, 2009 (edited) It's probly an adapter that locks inplace of a mag that allows belt feed. Now I've got a chubby I'm waiting to finish building my .308 DMR until I find out about this. Edited May 22, 2009 by Paladin Quote Link to post Share on other sites
csspecs 1,987 Posted May 22, 2009 Report Share Posted May 22, 2009 I'm still not sure how it would work.. The opening for the mag is about 1.10 and the rounds need about .90 on the inside to feed. So there is only .2 to make both adapter and mag of some sort fit into, if you make the adapter out of 16 gauge steel thats going to take about .11 of that space, this means that your mag would have to be made out of 22 gauge steel. While completely possible I think it would also tend to be somewhat frail. I am interested in seeing what they are making and how they make it work. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
