Frequently Asked Questions
Does this Magpul AICS magazine require an FFL transfer?
No. Rifle magazines are non-serialized firearm accessories and ship directly to your home address, provided your state or municipality does not restrict magazine capacities.
Will this magazine fit an AR-10 / SR25 rifle?
No. This is an AICS-pattern magazine designed exclusively for bolt-action rifles and specialized chassis systems. For AR-10 / SR25 semi-automatic rifles, select the Magpul PMAG 20 or 10 LR/SR GEN M3 series.
Can this magazine hold 6.5 Creedmoor ammunition?
Yes. Cartridges based on the .308 Winchester parent case—including 6.5 Creedmoor, 7mm-08 Remington, and .260 Remington—feed reliably in this AICS short-action magazine.
Can the capacity be adjusted?
Yes. The internal follower stop can be carefully trimmed following Magpul's guidelines to allow a 6th round capacity for hunting applications where a 5+1 total capacity is desired.
