saiga545 47 Posted June 14, 2012 Report Share Posted June 14, 2012 Was it hard for you getting the waffle mag to fit? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
coltaine 5 Posted June 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2012 no but i will say that i didn't do any magazine fitting like I see recommended for .223's I instead filed the mag catch down just like on a 7.62 and it locked up solid with no wobble. (i also grinded down the tab in the mag well) i hand cycled 5 mags through it with no problem. taking it to the range saturday to make sure it functions before having the ar adapter installed. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
pyzik 597 Posted June 14, 2012 Report Share Posted June 14, 2012 You didn't have to do any filling on the front of the mag well? If not, that's great. I filed the mag catch and the interdiction tab and still had to take just a hair off the top of the lip of the mag. Here you can see the metal showing through where I had to file. Like I said, very small amount. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
