AIA Enfield mags - Here in 2014 **ACCEPTING PRE-ORDERS**

I am not entirely sure the AIA .308 rifles are a variant of the Lee Enfield. I don't think any parts interchange.

Anyone else agree with this?

Chuckle, I will tell you from personal first hand knowledge, that the AIA bolt action 308 mags MOST CERTAINLY fit in a semi auto M14, and it's LEGAL.

I think he was comparing the 308 AIA to the named original 303 for purposes of arguing whether the AIA's are limited to 10 rounds.
 
I would be interested in 10 rounders if you're going to do those as well. I have no interest in extra weight and cosmetic appeal, but I'll take what I can get none-the-less.

Would anyone else like 10 rounders?

The fact that it has been called, and I quote the Marstar site;
"Australian International Arms' No.4 mk.IV rifle blends the best features of the SMLE (Short Magazine Lee Enfield) rifles from which it is a direct descendant with the latest technological advancements in engineering and manufacturing techniques.", means it will be considered a varient...

So the mag limit as Moe pointed out, applies.

Hmm, another silly law, generic bolt action rifle mags=no limit, but mags for this specific bolt action rifle, must be limited to 10. You'd think the bolt action rule would override the lee enfield exemption. The rules contradict each other.

Either way, I'd buy a few mags.
