I have several of them and they work fine do they have the green follower????????? if not go to the gun show and pick some green ones up and replace yours the followers are usuall a buck or less.
Save your pennies and ditch that crappy 'no tilt' green follower and pick up a magpul third generation anti-tilt follower.Frostyeyes said:I have several of them and they work fine do they have the green follower????????? if not go to the gun show and pick some green ones up and replace yours the followers are usuall a buck or less.

They're much more pricey but it's impossible to get the follower stuck like you can with the green followers.
Try using the eraser end of a pencil and pushing straight down on different parts of a green follower in a typical ar15 magazine.
You can get the follower stuck at least 3 different ways.
I might be just nitpicking, but a good magazine is one of the greatest ways to assure reliable functioning.
Did the floorplate look like this?

Floor plates are replaced before anything else on an AR15 magazine since you have to pry up the floor plate to remove it in order to clean an AR15 magazine.
Yes you are correct I lined it up with my oem b master mag and the top do not line up, I guess ill find out if it will be a problem when I get the chance to shoot it...kart racer said:I bought some and most worked, although a few required some filing.There seemed to be a fair amount of difference in quality.
I went out this past weekend and all I worked on were 100%.I'd order some more knowinf that I may need to modify some.My d&h mags have all been 100% from the get go,which goes against what some claim on ar15 forum.
you know I been trying to figure that out my self, I fell stupid to say that:???: ( I should Know ) but relay I cant tell is their a way to tell...it seems like steel --- I compared it to the bushmaster mag and it seem to Be the sameWilliamWallace said:so steel or aluminum? what's the verdict on that? bad experience with either?
I dunno brother, I have never had a problem with the USGI green followers in my years shooting the AR. I do have some of the C-Products mags with the new Magpul followers, but I find them to be a remedy in search of a problem! When loading a mag, I have never managed to get the green follower sideways and bind. It's only happened to me when I've been fidgeting with them and pushing the follower down with my fingers.Krackels said:Save your pennies and ditch that crappy 'no tilt' green follower and pick up a magpul third generation anti-tilt follower.

The Magpul follower works, but I think the USGI Green does the same job for less. Like their other products, the Magpul follower just has the benefit of looking cooler and making us feel more robo-futuristic![]()
