I have wanted a 6.8 SPC for a long time but living in a ban state and being limited to (10) round mags really has prevented me from doing so.
I do not know if it is possible but if there is a way to convert standard AR mags to be used with 6.8 SPC I am all in. |

The only thing I keep thinking, is that seeing the 7.62x39 is gaining more popularity lately..... It won't be long until someone else figures out how to do what this guy has done and produce it first. It ain't rocket science and he could miss the boat. I hope he can get this together and out ASAP. Id hate to see him miss out on his genius idea.
Plus asc mags are impossible to find right now. Even more reason for people to find a similar solution, like utilizing existing mags. |

I am designing the production version of the mag right now. I want to apply all the knowledge and lessen learned from this forum and try to come up a good balance to satisfy all users. After all, I claim my design is an universal one, so I can't intensionally leave out anyone. The bar is high.
Stay tuned. |

Sounds good, I presume that the main design/redesign is the follower of the magazine...or is it the complete magazine redesign ?
In either event I wish you quick success... |

I hope it works out, but with the different tapers a case diameters, I can see a universal body being a problem that your follower won't be able to completely overcome.

You can try all your life and you'll never have a truly universal design. Best to stick with a few niche calibers and cater to them. There's simply too many different calibers to try to have a single solution to each one. |

Shoot for stuff that is common - 5.56/7.62/6.8/6.5/300 Black etc.
Forget the idiotic .357/.44/30-30 shit. Get something mainstream worked out. Once you have a fully functional follower that works, patent it and start selling it. Once you get capital coming in then indulge some fool's pipe dream about making a follower that works with both a .50 caliber round, .38 special, and nail gun blanks. Too many people come up with a solid idea, have a product that works, and then go bankrupt trying to make it do something unobtainable before marketing anything. |

How is the follower going to compensate for stacked width variations?

I took a close look between the ASC AR-15 Magazine for the 7.62x39mm and a standard Mil Spec 5.56x45mm type Magazine w/ anti-tilt follower and the differences were apparent in the following areas only: *The follower design was different... *The feedlipps were shorter and wider... *The front and rear "legs" were a bit shorter... Other than the differences noted above, everthing seemed equal to the .223/5.56mm magazines... |

Just wanted to say I have seen your other threads and you are going to go places. It may not be weapon related but eventually you will find some company that recognizes your potential and will compensate you well for your skills. good luck bud.

I really want a 7.62x39 AR mag. Can't wait for your design. The heck with the other calibers. This seems to be the money maker!

Still nothing to report for the project, but I do get good news. Looks like I am coming back this year, hopefully for good.

Chris, Don't get me wrong. I love this country, but I just can't do a damn thing here.

Another right before the Thanksgiving, now I am back to the land of free. Thanks the Lord for granting me my wishes, and now I will carry his will to the extreme.
For my friends at the ARFCOM, if you have ever intrigued by what I can offer, you haven't seen anything from me yet. |
