The ProMag AKA5 magazine delivers reliable feeding and enhanced capacity for Century Arms WASR-3 rifles chambered in 223 Remington and 5.56x45mm NATO. This 30-round magazine addresses the limited availability of factory magazines while providing shooters with consistent performance at the range and in the field.
What Makes This Different
Unlike steel magazines that add unnecessary weight, the AKA5 utilizes DuPont Zytel polymer construction that reduces overall rifle weight without sacrificing durability. The polymer body resists corrosion and environmental damage that can plague metal magazines over time. Internal components feature steel reinforcement at critical stress points, combining the best attributes of both materials for long-term reliability.
