65 Receiver Set with Polymer mags from PF (HOPEFULLY)

Wider would do it but it would have to be quite a bit wider. I am thinking in terms of using existing mags or mag wells. Not creating a whole new mag well AND Mags. If the mags were narrow enough the force vertically would be greater creating less tension on the side walls. That is the issue with trying to use standard mag bodies now. Too much pressure on side walls because the contact is side to side and not equal in up and down too. The rounds are not touching vertically, just horizontally creating a jamming effect. If we make that angle steeper the force would be directed vertically and not so much horizontally.



I may not be explaining it so you guy can understand it, its too late at night.

You're coming in loud and clear Mark.

It seems the ideal mag would be so wide that we'd need a magwell wider than any current AR, correct? So then would the ideal mag be so wide that it'd affect reliable feeding with the center line of the ammo being shifted so far to the outside? At least with the standard bolt and extension.

Then could what your suggesting have a the inverse problem?
