The MDT AICS 3rd Generation magazine delivers reliable feeding for precision rifles chambered in 30-06 Springfield and 6.5x55 Swedish Mauser. This black nitride finished steel magazine provides consistent performance in demanding shooting applications where reliability cannot be compromised.
What Makes This Different
The third-generation AICS design incorporates improved follower geometry and spring tension compared to earlier versions. The black nitride coating provides superior corrosion resistance over standard bluing while maintaining the precise tolerances required for smooth feeding. This magazine features enhanced feed lips that reduce binding and improve cartridge presentation to the chamber.
Key Features
- 5-round capacity for 30-06 Springfield and 6.5x55 Swedish Mauser cartridges
- Black nitride steel construction resists corrosion and wear
- AICS pattern compatibility with most precision rifle chassis systems
- Improved 3rd generation follower design for reliable feeding
