Indeed, 10rnd mags would be awesome! I can't believe Magpul waited this long to bring out AICS mags. Would have been cool if it was modular enough to go with either AICS or their current 7.62 PMAGS. I'll take a few 6rnd polymer AICS mags. Guess I won't be ordering those MDT mags anytime soon now.

7.62 PMag would be 5 rounds here in Canada
Weight?
Colors?
offered in LH?
I am not interested by the archangel, and was about to order a cadex chassis for my blueprinted 700 aac-sd, but this could make me change my mind.
The price is way lower than the chassis, but I'll wait for reviews on it to see if it would be suitable for a long range precision target rifle or if it's going to be a case of "you get what you pay for".
I was planning a build in a different chassis as well, I suspect Magpul will deliver another amazing product of that I'm sure. Having used and owned a lot of Magpul products I can't see them producing a cheap or flimsy stock system.
I too will wait and read some reviews before picking one up but I imagine these will be a solid product at a reasonable price point.

$35 for a 6 round AICS? sounds like a waste of moneyMagpul has a couple of accessories ready to go for the Hunter chassis. The first is the end-user installable Bolt Action Magazine Well that allows AICS magazine compatibility. Magpul says the installation is simple: remove the mag well spacer from the Hunter chassis (thirty seconds) and insert the hybrid steel and insert the polymer Bolt Action Magazine Well. Sounds easy. $69.95 MSRP.
Second, Magpul has the PMAG5 7.62 AC, an AICS compatible polymer magazine with anti-tilt follower. The magazine holds five rounds as packaged to comply with hunting regulations, but if you clip the follower stop on a pre-scored line, it becomes a 6-round magazine, useful in competitive shooting disciplines or for carrying an extra round where it’s legal. $34.95 MSRP.
