Yes, I have them in all of my 7.62x39 mags, from the bakelites to the steel mags. Haven't tried them in the bulgy waffle mags.
Haven't had any issues, seem to work just as well as the Yugos and Croatian BHO mags. |

They do exactly what they claim to do.
If you like lrbho in an ak, then you will like these. I use them. |

Yes.
Love em, zero issues. I have in all my mags including Bulgarian Waffle Mags with zero issues. Chinese flatbacks, Romanian, everything except my Yugo's which are already LRBHO Mags. They're worth the money IMO/IME. |

I bought a three pack back when they first came out, work fine in Romys, Hungarians, Chinese and Koreans without modification. I keep expecting one to crack but so far they've held up.
Haven't bought any more cause I figured out I don't need BHO bad enough to upgrade all my other mags but always handy to have at least one BHO on hand. The public range I shoot at requires weapons be racked w/action open when range is cold so I carry an empty 5 round mag with one of these BHO followers. |

Do these work in 5.45 mags?
On Primary Arms' website it lists them for the AK-47/74 platform. |

I have them in some Chinese and Bulgarian x39 mags.
Zero complaints. A recommend from me. I love AK bolt hold open mags except the Croatian ones.

A true BHO would be great on the AK but I don't see the utility in the follower HO. When you remove the mag, the bolt closes, so there is no benefit in reloading.
