This is the no-longer-produced AICS pattern bottom metal for the Howa Mini. It was sold for a short time by CDI Precision. (RIP Jeff)
This one is definitely for the project-oriented shooter. AICS magazines are longer than the Howa Mini breech opening. While it has never happened to me, if a round were to slide forward in the magazine, it could snag beneath the receiver and cause a malfunction. A custom-modified AICS magazine with a block would save the day, but there's nothing commercially available. This bottom metal also requires a different stock inlet.
For those of you who enjoy a challenge. I'm only selling it because I want a hinged floor-plate for hunting.
Asking $125 shipped CONUS. Thanks for looking
