Actually I was thinking of trying them without the blue follower to see how they work. The Sig 556 mags work without the blue follower.

odgreen wrote:Got in a couple of PMAGs. Nice product. I 100% understand now. I filed the ridge and the follower. Works perfectly up to 8 rounds. Rounds 9 or above tend to kick up at the front which leads to the first round only half riding in to the chamber as the bolt catches on the front half of second round still in the magazine. This occurs because the magazine is not straight up and down, it is curved. With a cone shaped round like .223 I can see how this could be ok but the it seems to cause a hiccup for the .450 cylindar shape. Is it just me?
Also, I see you put two nylon screws in the front of your follower. Was that to resolve this problem? I don't have the screws in and so far no issues other than this but I can certainly make a trip to Lowes if there is a reason I'll run in to later.
Either way, nice magazine for an 8 round. I modified one and may leave the other .223 and buy a couple of Sigs to compare.
