    For you FN lovers

    Looks like you've got factory bottom metal support.

    Is TBM magazines good company to keep?

    I want a box mag sooo bad on this gun.

    Guys, if you have an SPR, would you go ths route or Badger ...that takes AICS Mags?

    Badger with AICS. Hands down.

    To the point where it's unlikely that you'll ever have a problem if it's installed properly.

    Over the last 6 years, I've not had one single malfunction with short action AICS mags. ... ever.

    I have the SPR A5M with the TBM, no issues at all. for some, it may be an issue of standardizing magazines if you have other platforms with the AI mags. Both are high quality and will perform well.

    The Team FN Long Range guys ran the prototypes very well at every match I've shot with them. No problems at all, and they are designed very well. I'd run one without hesitation if I had an SPR, it's a great upgrade.

    I applaud them for getting it working... but $449... dayum.

    Even when considering you get a 5rnd and 10rnd mag... they are jumping right to the top of the price bracket with a brand new un-proven design.

    As was said, with an AI setup... you have a much greater audience.

    449$ my ass CDI cost almost half that and uses AI mags not to mention wayats outdoors, seekins and badger. 449$ why even offer it?

    Because its has FN stamped on it they feel they can charge 30% more like everything else with FN. But yes that it way too high to expect success.

    The CDI requires machining of the action.
    Some people might want a no-gunsmithing drop-in solution, even if it costs more.
