| Will the Orlite Mag work in my Bushy M4A3? I've read that they won't work in a Bushy or Rock River. |
The answer is maybe.  Older Orlites (with mold number 0/18 and below) wouldn't work with some Bushmaster receivers because of the "lip" around the mag. Most people ground down the lip to accomodate for this. Mold number 0/19 and higher worked better. Most could be used in most Bushmaster receivers with no problem. The problem with grinding the lip- it acted as a "stop" so the magazine couldn't be overinserted. No stop= overinsertion. As far as the RRA. I had a RRA and 8 or so unmodified Orlites (mold number 0/5- 0/14). They were tight, but would lock into place and feed just fine. Hope this helps!!!
