Just got a bunch of 10 round aluminum mags and they have some green followers I've never seen. Wondering if there is a resource listing all the different kinds of AR 223/556 followers and what's compatable with what. Wondering if you can just switch a follower from a 30 body to a 20 to a 10 and visa versa.

Most of the 30 round followers these days are anti tilt, which are not required on the 10 and 20 round mags.

But can you put anti tilt followers in the 20 and 10 round bodied magazines? Not have capacity issues or need different springs?

Green followers will fit curved 20 rounds magazine.

USGI straight 20 rounds mags will take only aluminum and black followers

The followers are supposed to tilt in straight body magazines.

That's weird because I have some straight ASC stainless steel 10/20 (10 rounder in a 20 round body) but they have anti tilt folowers. So confusing.
