Overview
Built for AX AICS-compatible rifles chambered in 7.62x51/.308, this 5-round magazine is suited to hunters and shooters who want a compact, lower-capacity option for field use or range work. It is made from steel with special coatings intended for durability and corrosion resistance, and the removable springs and followers make cleaning more straightforward. The magazine uses a double-stack, single-feed design with a front lip and is specified for non-“AW cut” actions. As with any restricted item, legality should be confirmed before purchase in your area.

Considerations & Trade-offs
- Limited to 5 rounds, so it is suited to hunting or range use where lower-capacity magazines are preferred, but not for users needing higher round counts.
- Listed for AX AICS compatibility and non 'AW cut' actions, so fit depends on the specific rifle setup rather than being broadly universal.
- Magazine restrictions are noted in the product data, so legality should be checked before purchase in your area.
- Springs and followers are removable for cleaning, which adds maintenance flexibility but also means there are more components to keep track of during disassembly.
