[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Best Colt Style Mag Block?

Posted: 11/24/2008 7:34:30 AM EDT

I've read a ton of threads here most are vintage 2002-2004 has anything better come along?

I mean in a perfect world I'd like a block that has:
1. Factory mag release
2. Takes UNMODDED Uzi Mags
3. Has BHO.

As far as I know nothing like that exists hence why I'm looking at the Dedicated Hahn unit. I'm all ears, anything better out there?! :)

Thanks!

Mine are all Colts. (2) are Colts 2 piece units with 3 pins and (1) is a 1 piece unit with 2 pins.

This afternoon you should get some excellent answers from the guys with blocks, other than Colts.

I don't know of ANY block that takes unmodded UZI mags and has a BHO or uses the factory mag release.

RRA will do 1 and 3.
You can't do an un-modded Uzi mag with the stock AR mag catch.

I would buy the hahn if you don't mind removing your bolt catch to install it. Colt mags may run $50 and up, but I have never heard anyone complain about them. You are 2 for 3 at least.

Above methods are the best way to get 2/3 of your list. Or, you can get a VM Hy-tech block and use unmodded Uzi mags. It has its own mag release on the side, and the Uzi mags mean no BHO, so you miss out on two of the three things you want. Uzi mags are cheap, though.

Happy with my RRA block on a RRA and Spike's uppers W/ CP mags.
44mag. has closeout CP 20 round Marlube mags for $16.99
