The ProMag DPMA4 delivers extended capacity for AR-10 platform rifles chambered in .308 Winchester, providing 40 rounds of reliable feeding in a lightweight polymer construction. Built from DuPont Zytel polymer, this magazine offers shooters increased firepower without the weight penalty of steel alternatives.
What Makes This Different
Unlike standard 20-round AR-10 magazines, the DPMA4 doubles capacity while maintaining compatibility with DPMS-pattern lower receivers. The DuPont Zytel polymer construction reduces weight by approximately 30% compared to steel magazines of similar capacity. Heat-treated steel springs and anti-tilt followers ensure consistent feeding under rapid fire conditions.
Key Features
- 40-round capacity for .308 Winchester/7.62x51 NATO cartridges
- DuPont Zytel polymer body resists impact and chemical damage
- Compatible with DPMS-pattern AR-10 rifles and variants
- Heat-treated steel spring maintains tension over extended use

Field testing demonstrates reliable cycling through various .308 Winchester loads, from 147-grain FMJ to 175-grain match ammunition. The extended capacity proves advantageous in competitive shooting disciplines, tactical training scenarios, and hunting situations requiring multiple follow-up shots. Temperature extremes from -20°F to 140°F show minimal impact on feeding reliability.
