Here's a question. It was my understanding that the DPMS .22 uppers are based on the M261 rather than Ciener. How close is this stand alone (bolt replacement) kit they now have to a real (and rare) M261? |
I believe those two mags are the same. If the old Colt mag has a little ejector thingie sticking up off the left lip, it should work in DPMS. If it doesn't, it won't. |
|
After my searching, that is why I was confused about what is actually correct. So: Kheul uses modified Ciener DPMS uses a Colt-based system M261 - have to find a real one Bushmaster uses - ? CZ - proprietary Be nice to have a FAQ tacked on everyone's combined (and validated) knowledge!  |
DPMS uses an original COlt mag with the "thingie" sawed off.  (I didn't like even typing that.....) |
Looking at my DPMS mag, it looks like the ejector "thingie" is there. So you don't have to worry about your mags being neutered (other than only being 10 rnd mags) |
