Poor Man's Magpul Magazine Enhancement for AR magazines

[kest_01]

I never like putting the 550 in my floorplate, like IG said easy to bend those things, my last unit were dicks about using issue mags, so I got some skateboard grip tape and wrapped the bottom 3 inches of the mag with that. Worked good enough.

Standing at a picnic table charging mags at a class, a fellow student stood wide-eyed at my stripper clips and spoon.

"Where'd you get those? Who makes those? Can I get those online?"

Everything that's old, is new again. It's a retro thing.

Retro Ranger Plates!

KISS rifles should run KISS Ranger plates.

No self respecting airsofter would be caught dead without this type of mag pull! Haha.

Seriously though, I second the Gorrilla Tape. That shit rocks. Also, why remove the inner strands from the 550 Cord? Just curious.

Thinner, lighter, allows tighter curves and smaller knots.

Thanks for the inspiration. I may try the inside the mag version on another.

Tada:

This is old news. We were doing this about 20 years ago. I have also seen numerous floorplates get messed up from them being yanked on.

I personally prefered the other method which was making a 550 loop and using green 100 MPH tape.

Agreed, and dare I say, beyond 20 years ago...
