Ok...I am sure this is posted eslewhere, but I did not have good luck finding out the answer to my question.

Should I reuse the original metal followers, or the new green ones in my USGI 20-Rounders?

By all means, USE THE ORIGINALS. They make GF for the USGI 20s but they are inferior replacements. For maximum reliability & durability use the originals for USGI 20s, (or send them over to me!

lol...thanks.

Well....I guess I'll just keep the originals in if there is nothing "wrong" with them.

I wasn't sure if they had the same canting issues as the 30's or not.

If the aluminum followers are in good condition, stay with them.

As far as canting, I can put my finger on the front edge of the follower and push it straight down without binding. Try that with a 30 rounder, anti-tilt follower or not! The straight body makes the follower track quite well.
