MDT AICS 12-Round Metal Magazine Black w/ Plate

These MDT AICS-pattern metal magazines feature a Double Stack to Single Feed (DSSF) transition design that reduces overall height compared to the industry standard. They are manufactured from high-strength steel, nitrided, and finished inside and out with Cerakote Elite for enhanced durability, corrosion resistance, and reduced friction. Available with or without a front binder plate to accommodate different cartridge overall lengths and chassis/bottom metal systems.

These magazines are compatible with a variety of AICS-pattern rifles; specific compatibility notes provided by the manufacturer indicate the magazines may require slight modification for some actions (for example, Howa 1500 SA and some common Remington 700 or Savage actions when used without a binder plate). Choose the binder-plate version when you need a controlled maximum COAL of 2.870 inches for reliable feeding in standard AICS bottom metal; choose the non-binder version when you require additional cartridge length clearance and are prepared to verify fitment for your specific action. Built for long service life and consistent feeding, these magazines are a practical component for precision and long-range platforms that accept AICS-pattern magazines.
