[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Mags with Ranger plates. Are you loading 28 or 29 rounds? Hard to seat 30.

Have installed Ranger and L Plates on some of my 30 round mags. Can get 30 in but it is hard. Can't seat mag on a closed bolt with 30 in. Is this normal?

I find the stock ones to work fine for me.....

.....never used a after market one even with new springs and followers..

I load 29 in my USGIs with L-Plates.

30 in my stock USGIs, 30 in my Lancers, 30 in my PMags, HKs are only good for photo ops.

all my pmags with the ranger plate do the same thing...my first magazine is loaded with 28,..all the rest are 30. Snap in place fine with the bolt & carrier locked back.
