Yes these mags can be disassembled for cleaning. Catch the thin edge of the floor plate against the edge of a table or corner and pound down with your fist on the back spine of the magazine. The base plate slides off towards the rear of the mag. There are no clips or retaining pins, they just slide off albeit tight. You can then remove the spring and the follower will drop out.

i agree with. purchased one, don't fit good, can not use it with my quick strip clip loader, so called "canadian made", throw it aside, never touch it again.

you both beat me to it. No, not the best ever, but no where near the worst magazines in the world or anything like that. Would I use them if my families lives depend on it? No, but if that happened, I am pretty sure it wouldn't matter if that little rivet was in the regular 30 rounders

Hmm, interesting. I bought one too. Works fine in my T97 (with a little sanding) and my NEA-15.

Did you sand the mag or the gun?

Mostly the mag, but did a very little light sanding in the magwell as well.
Still doesn't drop free, but otherwise comes out easily enough.

So you modified a magazine for a .50 firearm to fit and function in a .223/556 gun. That's called manufacturing a prohibited device.

You've clearly missed the point.
You just went full retard.

Yeah the mag still only holds 5 rounds of the cartridge for which it was designed (.50 Beo) so it's not in any way prohibited, regardless what firearm it's used in (or modified to use in)
It would need the same sanding to work in a .50 Beo AR as the magwells are all mil spec? Just a thought

No, the T97's are known to have tighter magwells.
Out of curiosity, would someone be able to copy and paste the part of the firearms act that talks about magazine modification. I cant seem to find it. (And not the part about modifying magazines to hold less rounds through the use of pin etc.)

its not a prohibited device now. just tweaking a mass produced part to fit another mass produced part. no changes of intent, no changes of capacity, no changes of cartridge type, not making it work with a prohib round, or in a prohib firearm.
