I got the last one I ordered from here for $9.95: http://www.fulton-armory.com/M6Tools.htm
They also have it in aluminum which is $16.95. :D

Is the aluminum worth the extra money?

Not really IMHO. Maybe it will outlast the plastic one years down the road but so far the plastic one works great, is a little lighter, cheaper, and so far durable. I couldn't see a difference between the Fulton one and the Bushmaster one, although I am sure they are probably made in the same factory. I am sure the plastic one is a little easier on brass though. :D

I don't believe they will. IIRC Pmags followers are different than G.I. profile followers. Someone will correct me is I am wrong.

Just modify your 223 mag follower. Takes 10 minutes and works perfectly :-)
