Magpul Ranger Plates for Robinson Armament XCR-M .308 Win. 10RD Pistol Magazine?

[kouma]

Does anyone know if Magpul Ranger Plates will fit Robinson Armament XCR-M .308 Win. 10RD Pistol Magazine? If not, is there an alternative that will fit these Mags?

I can't see why not. I picked some up for my xcr-l, however I regret doing so. I had to nip the follower to allow the 10th round in. Of my 7 mags, the only ones that cause issues are the ones with the clipped followers/ranger plates.

This may not be an issue for the M mags but it may be worth thinking about.

As far as I know, Magpul does not make Ranger plates for 308 sized mags. The xcr-m mags are longer. I wish they did.

Did you try filing the ranger plates instead of the mags themselves?
