I know the 50 round follower is only $12 and it is a $1500 rifle (no sense getting cheap) but has anybody just done a little creative dremel work on the 30 round follower? I was looking at the 30 round follower and it seems as if you could just carefully cut away the block in the middle and then just glue the top and bottom pieces together. Once the mag is back together what's the difference? Has this been tried yet? I apologize if this has been discussed already but I don't seem to recall seeing it anywhere. |
It was discussed 8 months ago but you won't find it in this forum as it was recently started up. If you really want to convert the mag, buy the plate. IMHO just leave it as a 30rd and buy 50rd mags. Sell your 30rd mag to someone who needs it due to state law (I heard a few states have a ban on anything that holds more than 30rd) |

I asked pretty much the same question a couple days ago, with no responses. I decided to get after the floor plate with my dremel and some hand files for the finish work. no need to glue the top and bottom together as just the bottom works fine on mine. I'm sure someone somewhere might want the 30 round block off, but i didnt see anyone else selling a 30 round mag or 30 round block, nor did I see any WTB ads for them, so I figured it'd probably be ok for me to do some experimenting. the worst it could cost me is $10+shipping for a 50 round floorplate, and a little irritation for messing up my perfectly functionally 30 round mag, but all is well and operation is great. no regrets. |
WOOHOOO! just got the black ps90 today!  haven't been out to the range with it yet, but soon... anyway, i decided to go with the ghetto-fab floorplate, and only ended up with a 49rd cap, and that just wouldn't do. so i just got rid of the piece that hooked to the spring and only have the dimpled plate that holds the mag together. sure, if i take it apart in a hurry, it will probably fly off and get lost, but honestly, i've never had to do a combat mag disassembly, so i think i'll be fine with out it.
