Long LAR-15 pistol magazine

[daedra83]

I want to know if there is a long 10 rd magazine for LAR-15 pistol on the market (like a fake 30 rounder)?

Short answer NO.

Short answer NO.

Maybe one day?

Unlikely. Someone from Questar I think already covered that. Apparently there was a 10/30 LAR pistol magazine design submitted to the RCMP for certification and it was rejected.

I'd still like somone to make a slip on 'bottom' for the LAR mags similar but bigger than the ones that go on some of the 5 round bench rest mags.

Questar sells the "Tacpull" floor plates for the LAR magazines... is that what you're looking for?

Nope. Some of the 5 round mags have a solid (maybe hollow) fake bottom so they have the same size/shape as a 20 round mag. Something similar but sized for a 30 would be perfect so they fit in vests/carriers better.

Edit: Like this one but built for the shape of a 30 round body would be great.

Exactly! Maybe we should write to magpull to produce those product?

I've since used 4 mags for two doubles with a more permanent solution. Works for me.

I can change mags and re-engage in about 3 seconds.

Mag capacity is not an issue. QUANTITY of magazines is the limiting factor.

NS

What about the tacticool factor? That is the problem, in my opinion two mags taped together makes me think at some african war somewhere.

Exactly! It's not very mall ninja fashionish

I have four put together...

Not knocking these ideas but none of them help with fitting these mags in a mag pouch.

Sean @ Freedom Ventures attached 2.5" Alum Bar stock on the bottom of the mags to give them the same length as a 30rd mags.

I'm going with something lighter and going with ABS plastic blocks...

BUAHAHA now that is just awsome.

Good job

Why can't someone try to skin a lar mag with steel from a 30 rounder. few spot welds and your good to go.

It would probably be hard to strip/clean the mags that way.

Yep, this is what I did.

-They allow more positive seating. (I also run an Arredondo mag well)
-Easier grip on the mag when using belt-mounted pouches.
-I can use the mags as a mono-pod for prone shooting.
-The mags fall out easier with the extra weight - I'm an IPSC shooter, I'm not going to go reaching for the mag to pull it out - time is of the essence!!!
-The raw aluminum makes them easy to find in the brush / muck of an IPSC stage.

I just went to my local metal supply house, bought 4’ of aluminum bar stock and picked up a non-ferrous blade for my chop saw and voila - AR-15 Pistol base pads.

HUmm that is the simplest , little bit more work and you could match the curve of a 30rd and it would match right up.
