| can i install the c-products antitilt followers in some 20 round curved d&h that have the old green followers in them? the magpul and cproducts follwers seem to be for 30 round only. thanks |
| Just to expand on this a bit, be advised that with 20 rounds in the mag, the anti-tilts "legs" are almost touching the floorplate, and when you load on a closed bolt, they are touching, and even pushing out on the floorplate slightly. As far as I know, this should not be a problem, but I just wanted to point this out, and hopefully get some feedback from other shooters. |

Yeah I tried loading one on a closed bolt, and that thing was a pain to try to get in there. I also noticed that when I was putting the 20th round in, it was extremely stiff and made a crunching noise. Maybe the mag just needed to be broken in, but all 5 of them did it. (For reference, they were C products aluminum 20 rd, curved mags). |

I do tend to down load mags by two rounds also, i.e. 28 in a 30, 18 in a 20. I really like these CProd 20s, and the great price makes them a winner for me. |

They are excellent mags, but with all of the US GI aluminum mags and P-mags, I've never had to download or slap them very hard to always get a consistent seating. Either way, I guess it's a good habit to learn and practice with. |

E-mail [email protected] and she will give you an RMA to send them back. Larry |

Thanks for the offer though. |
