Hello,

My Windham Weaponry 450 Bushmaster came with one magazine built up from an OKAY 20 round magazine with a single shot follower added along with a pop rivet I the spine limiting total rounds to 5. The magazine body is interesting in that it looks like it was fabricated on the original tooling from the 60's. I had some Colt 20 round magazines w/black plastic followers, same tooling?, on hand that I added the same single shot follower to, available on EBAY for $9.95 free shipping if you buy x3, and they function perfectly and hold 7 rounds.

Cheers,
W-W

you will probably need to file a small half moon out of the front of the mag body to ensure reliability in feeding, but you're on the right track. this has been discussed for some time with the ar-stoner stainless mags.

its easier to use the SIG 30 round 5.56 mags for "hi capacity" usage. no modification necessary and have a 9 round capacity. and they're only like $8 - less than what you're paying for your followers to modify the 20round straight body mags.

Also FWIW, there is a similar add-on for Firefox now. Everyone has their favorite browser.

good to know for those using FF

Hello,

So far this magazine configuration has had no failures to feed my Hornady 250gr GTX or 230gr FMJ reloads in my Windham upper. Not sure about other uppers but the Windham has a seriously recontoured feed ramp.
