    Sorry when you said AI, I was thinking Accuracy International not Alpha Industries.

    Technically speaking yes there are 2 different mags that Alpha Industries makes that fit the RGS but it's the internal lenght of the magazine that makes the differnce (longer bullets to get closer to the rifling). But the feed lip are the same on both types of magazine. I had to notch out a small section on the back of the right feed lip because the ejector wanted to share the same space. Once that was done it all works.

    Thanks for the clarification. I'll look it over and work it over if needed. Did you use a file, dremel, or something else?

    I used a dremel for the basic first cut and a file to fit the rest. I also used a Sharpy (fine point) to mark the area that needs to be cut. The heat treatment on the magazine is very mild and the feed lips will bend easily. Push the back of the feed lip in towards the center of the body and then mark the where the ejector hit the feed lip with the magazine in the rifle. Remove the bolt first so it does not get in the way.

    First class picture, the selection of the background really sets off the finish of the wood.
