Received my 5 pack today.
A little bit more of slop in the mag well vs. stock, but all 5 worked fine in terms of function, feeding, and the bolt hold open operation.
Actually, one of my rifles hold the OEM mags a little tight, but these E-Lander A1A mags just pop in and out, so the extra play worked in favour for one of my rifles.

Only complaint is that the finishes on these magazines are a little crinkled, like the "orange peel look" of paint that's been sprayed on too heavily.
In comparison, the finish on the E-Lander M14 (5/20 rnd) and AR15 mags that I have are all super smooth.
 
Just got mine today. I test fitted them in my Socom 18. The mags fit fine, nice and tight with zero slop. They lock in place correctly, with a gently shove from the bottom of the magazine. I imagine this might loosen up slightly with use. When I remove the mag, I simply depress the mag release and shove (using abit of force) the magazine out, and away from me. They hold 10 rounds, without issue and inserting cartridges into the magazine is smoother than the 5/20 magazines that came with the rifle.

Thanks Wolverine!
 
Got mine & I AM IMPRESSED!!!

Tried them in BOTH my AIA & Enfield, and they fit perfectly!!! :ar15:

Thanks Wolverine!!! :rockOn:

Cheers

I received my A1A ten round magazine today. This is what's printed on it:

E
"For Use in A1A Type Rifles"

It loads ten rounds easily and smoothly.
It fits into the appropriate mag well with a slightly exaggerated rocking motion, and some shooters
may find it more difficult to extract compared to other mags, but that's just because it's shorter than
those "5/20"s owners of rifles (other than Enfields) have been forced to endure, so
you don't have as much leverage nor as much mag to grab onto. Still, a lot easier to remove than the tiny
"5/5"s issued with certain other unnamed rifles!

Looking forward to some range time next week.

I went to the range this week and ran all 5 of my magazines through my rifle. The fit and finish of all of the magazines was top notch. They ran in my rifle with out a hiccup.

The only problem is that I will clearly be using way more ammo now!!!!!
 
Just got my 5-pack and they all fit and function perfectly. Thanks Grumpy

On another topic, What are the magwedges shown in post #58 and where are they available?. I have Magwedges for 5.56 magazines, but the A1A mags are bigger, and I can't seem to find the .308/7.62x51 versions.
