New Bushmaster Mags.

Has anybody been able to get any of the new followers?

I got followers directly from Bushmaster. They are $13.95 in the clearance section on their website: http://www.bushmaster.com/products.asp?cat=99.

Single-Shot Magazine Follower
A blue plastic follower that installs easily inside most "AR" type .223/5.56mm magazines - allows single shot loading of extra long competition handloads that won't function in regular magazines. Shown separately and installed. Magazine not included.

MSRP: $13.95 Part No: SS-FOL

I think he's talking about the black one-piece followers that ship on the more recent mags, not the blue snap-over ones.

Yes, I was talking about the new black ones. I guess I could call them and find out for myself. Just lazy.

I called and spoke to a CSR. He said they are available to order for $13.95 plus shipping and the P/N is SS-FOL

I asked him twice to verify that the P/N is not for the blue snap-over ones and he confirmed it is the black one currently shipping with new mags.

The shipping is the worst part. Best price per unit seems to be when 7 are ordered at $15.59 each as opposed to $20.45 for 1. Sounds like a good group buy deal. The leader could then ship them to the participants in a bubble envelope for $1.29 each. Perhaps one of our members has a discount with them and could help out...cough..Tim..cough.

I'd be in for a group buy.

I received my new upper this week. I tried to put the 5 rounds in the magazine but it would only hold 4. So I tore it apart and there is a new style follower in it than is described in the paperwork with the upper. Has anybody else seen this or had problem with this.

This follower has been shipping for over a year now.

Does anybody have a source for single stack followers? This was relevant when I posted it.
