Okay, so I called Bushmaster this morning and of course, Elija, the CSR I spoke to wanted to know the name of CSR who told me we could order the black follower as They are not available to purchase as a discreet component. I did not write down the person's name who I spoke to the first time, but from now on I sure will. Anyway, he was courteous about it and is sending me a pre-paid shipping label to return them for a refund. I do not want the blue snap-over solution. I'd just as soon build up a conventional anti-tile follower with JB Weld and mill a groove down the middle. I've done it that way and it works. I just don't like the way it looks. Hopefully, Midway will make their recently added Ar Stoner version available in the 5-round version like Bushmaster sells and I will just order one of those. That, or I will pick up an actual Bushmaster 5-round the next time they are on sale. Perhaps, if we could find out who OEMs the black ones for Bushmaster and Midway, we could order the black followers from them. Good luck getting that information out of them.
So this effort is a bust.
