I'm looking at a DPMS 308.  I recently purchased some M14 magazines at a gunshow.  Can these magazines be converted for use in the DPMS?  Thank you.

Unfortunately I do not think they can. The DPMS .308 is fairly propriatary. The mags are expensive also. The price you pay when you buy new technology. I have tried to do some of my own mods to my AP4 and learned that there are not a lot of options for after market stuff other than the DPMS made stuff.

Thank you.  Well I guess I'll have to get rid of these.  That's what I get for not researching more thuroughly.

Expensive?



Relative term.  The DPMS uses the same magazine as the SR-25.  The SR-25 magazines run around $100 each.  The DPMS magazines are $30 each.

To me, they are inexpensive.
