ASC LAR-15 5.56/223 10-Round Pistol Mag (30-Round Body)

[ShaneN.]

Drill out rivet, remove base plate, remove plastic block reinstall base plate. Done

Is the block just there for the rivet to have some meat to catch into? The block obviously doesn't stop the follower if the mag is crimped, I assume? So just take a small bit and drill right into the centre of that rivet? Is there any negative to being left with a hole in the bottom of the mag?

There are already larger holes in the top and side of the mag.

I popped the rivet on mine and did not change the fact it still wont insert on a closed bolt. Dont bother drilling the rivet out, just pry the round metal thing on the bottom of the mag with a screwdriver.

Can you explain what you did to it a bit better for me ? Does yours now load with 10 in the mag on a closed bolt ?
Thanks

It made no difference.

Look at the big stupid metal disc on the bottom of the mag. Usually there will be a side that is more raised than the others. Stick a decent size screwdriver against the bottom of the disc and start prying it and working your way around the disc. Eventually it will pop off. Watch where your hands are as the screwdriver will slip.

Anyone has a picture of said rivet in the floor plate?

I bought a bunch just recently and theres a few that are very tight. They really need to move the crimps down by a 1/4".​

They need to move the crimp down by 4".

TNA, when can we expect these mags restocked?

Looking to buy one of these for my smith and Wesson m&p sport II, can I still legally use the 10/30 for it in 5.56??

 

[Sparky442]

Yes as long as the magazine is labeled as a pistol magazine it can hold 10 rounds. See special bulletin 72.

Thanks for asking. We have some on order but won't see them until the new year.

This has probably been asked before, but I’m not going to go back through 8 pages of thread, but would it be possible to have them crimped so they would seat on a closed bolt with 10 rounds in the mag?

 

[OhMrFister]

Would it be possible to get 10/20 mags on order?
