    Using a Magpul .308 PMag in a SCAR 17S

    First, the instructions...
    1. mod the magazines. cut off the four plastic 'spacers' at the front of the magazine. grind down the sides of the magazines so that all the writing/bullet symbols are flush. Take apart the magazine. cut the follower, just two quick cuts, there is a line right at the back center of the follower, youll know what i mean when you are cutting. if you dont do this the mag will lock the bolt open with one round left. (DO ALL OF THIS WITH THE PLASTIC SAW) after that get the drill bit out, and cut the mag catch.

    2. mod the magwell, with the magazine taken apart(empty) it should fit in the magwell, a tight fit. with the grind stone grind down the inside of the magwell untill the magazine slides in easily. the back of the magwell need to be rounded like the back of the magazine. i can still use the original magazine bot it wobbles a little, im thinking of trying ar10 magazines sometime,
    Sounds bad enough already--but wait until you see the results

    I think I would leave that to someone with a mill. It would be cool if someone came out with a replacement lower which accepted SR25 type mags.

    What a hack job. That guy should have been a plastic surgeon in Brazil.
    “Of all tyrannies, a tyranny exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron’s cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end, for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.”
