BCL102 and XCR-M Micro Pistol Mags

[Chemist]

As you can see the notch on the top of the spine is slightly narrower on some of the XCR-M pistol magazines. It is the one on the right. Some fit fine, some don't. You'll need to open the notch up a bit with a file...on the left side looking at it, for the bolt to release on an open bolt. There seems to be some slight variation on the mags.

I'll post another mag shortly.

The one on the left has the rounded off corner.

Interesting. Good to know.

The first batch of magazines we tested were fine, the other case we just opened seemed a bit narrower. I have a sample of the regular mags we'll be shipping with them being ups'd to me.

Here are all 5 of my XCR-M mags with the left side on the spine repaired to allow the bolt catch to release the bolt when you press it.

Quick EASY 1 minute fix per mag.

for legal reasons, the mags were modified to be in spec, NOT TO FIT THE NEA102 (or else you will need to pin) if remanufactured for rifles...

I have 8 xcr mags, some of them today worked with the bolt release, some didn't. I'll check them out later thanks for the heads up. I had been wondering why.

Yes that is correct. They are not being made to fit the 102, the notch is being changed to be in spec. It is also why I posted other magazines for comparison.

LR308 bolt release have a very narrow tap to contact with mag follower, so it works with vertically all sr25 mags.

Just some ideas for future improvements.

My BCL102 shoots good.

Driller! I can't believe you still don't have yours! I feel for you. Be careful, I expect you might explode when it finally arrives

no, feeds from all my 308 mags even pistol, just some pistol mags were out of spec

Haha it's possible, the wait is driving me nuts!

We just bought a house so all of that will keep me busy until it arrives at least.

Congratulations on the new place. Do you think you will be too busy with the house to take your 102 out when it comes?
