Do Armalite AR10 rifiles only use armalite style mags? Are all AR10 mags universal?
ArmaLite AR-10 Magazines are proprietary magazines. Previously ArmaLite AR-10's used converted M-14 magazines (1st Generation). Today AR-10 Magazines (Generation II) come in many sizes. Each magazine will accommodate ammunition variants used on the AR-10 platform.
*Our AR-10 .308 magazines only work in our AR-10 rifles.
Keep in mind that...mccrock said:Armalite made the AR10 originally with what are now the SR25/DPMS/etc. mags. Then the '94 ban and they changed to modified M14 mags, which were more common, and allowed surplus M14 mags to be converted for anyone wanting 11+ rounds in a mag. Ban ends, some time passes, Armalite changes back, which is why the "new" model is "AR-10A".
