Hey all, Does anyone know if you can simply repalce the old Black Follower in old straight 20round mags with the new green Follower of Magpuls? Or does this not work due to old mag design? Sorry if someone already went over this. T |

Neither magpuls folloers or Green USGI Gen II followers are designed to work in straight 20rnd mags. You can make a gree follower work by trimming the legs, but why bother? You can get correct black plastic straight 20 followers and springs from brownells. I just rebuilt 4 of my straight 20's with perfect results. www.ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=3&f=17&t=318996 |
That would be cool. Please let me know if you remember. Thanks, T |
Opey, Have you used these followers? I mean sometimes when something is redone to be like the original its close, but no cigar. I would prefer originals. But, If not available these may work if reliable. Thanks, T |
I have never ever had any issues with the old alloy followers. But everyone just moans about the black followers in 30's so I figured if I could replace them with the old allow follwers to CYA then why not. But, I have not had probs with the black followers in my old 20's either. T |
