    Waters rifleman mags

    How have people gotten on importing these?


    Anyone used the AICS mags? Any issues/feedback ?

    Thanks to all that PM'd me informing me of Dave Waters' package labelling approach

    I've obtained a 6rd 2.6OAL .223 mag from a forum member

    If anyone is interested, it weighs 103gm vs 157gm for an Accurate Mag AICS steel 5rd mag. It fits snugly in my CDI (rip) bottom metal on the M7 and functions consistently with 80gr handloads at long OAL, and factory rounds at short OAL. Function is consistent but not 100% perfect - tips of rounds do catch on the feed ramp a little due to the exit angle from the mag so I may file the mag lips a bit to change the exit angle.

    It's a very nicely made piece of equipment.
    Matt2308 and Mathias like this.
