After trying various magazines that you had to grind portion out bend the feed lips and other fiddling around with these work perfectly just put the ammunition in and go I use it for .458 SOCOM its first one I found that feeds the ammunition right out of the package. Will definitely be buying more. I purchased the 20 round mag and it holds 8 .458 SOCOM.

Great mags!!! Works wonderfully for the 223/556 and for the 50 Beowulf without having to alter the magazine in any way. Great product. These will definitely be my go to going forward

I have used these magazines for dozens of range days and competitions over the last few years, with several different AR15’s and thousands of rounds of various brands of 223 and 556, ranging from 55 grain to 77 grain bullets, and have not had any problems whatsoever with them. There are many great mags to choose from, and Lancer is one of them, but I choose it over the others because the steel feed lips give added peace of mind. They also it fit my mag pouches better than the rest of the non-GI mags.
