They work great I couldn't be happier. They feed rounds silky smooth. I won't field any gear that isnt 100% reliable so its says something when I use these in all my mags and I recommend them to everyone in my unit.

i heard a-lot things you could do to make this compatible with the springs and heres a thought, wire cutter and pliers. cut a little off and make a new bend. works for me:)

I recently purchased the C.M.M.G. stainless steel, anti-tilt magazine followers from CTD. Here's my experience with them - I bought the stainless steel followers to replace the plastic followers in some inexpensive magazines. Other posts on this subject say that the magazine spring has to be turned around (front to back) when using the C.M.N.G. magazine followers. I found that when turning around the spring, it was difficult to get the spring into the loop in the follower and after doing so the follower and spring just bound up in the magazine. If the spring is installed normally and not hooked into the loop on the follower, the follower functions correctly. In fact, I can push the follower all the way down the magazine with a screw driver without any binding. This is something I couldn't do with the original plastic followers. To improve inexpensive magazines and for $10 for five of them, I say these magazine followers are a good buy.

Took a couple of 30 rd mags I had culled out of my stockpile. I pulled the piece of crap plastic followers out of them, cleaned them up, filed off some rough edges on the lips and they were ready to go. I took an extra and possibly unnecessary step of rounding the sharper edges off of the follower (to reduce possible hang ups) gave it a real light coat of CLP and put it together. (that spring placement thing is an unfortunate but workable issue) Overhauled mag felt like the $60.00 H&K mags I have been coveting. Next step is back to CTD for another couple of packs of followers and some $12 mags to upgrade.

They work great. Had a problem with mid-mag rounds jammin and that stopped. Have my factory DPMS mags and a mess load of colt mags. Not a hard thing to figure out but my DPMS springs fit fine, had to flip over the colt springs though. Either way, simple to figure out unless maybe you can't do anything without instructions.

I purchased a 5-pack of the followers to test them out before possibly purchasing more. There were NOT any instructions included, but I soon figured out that you had to spin the springs around so that the other side (NOT OTHER END) of the spring goes through the hole. The lack of instructions concerns me - since improper installation may endanger the life of a fellow Soldier who didn't quite figure it out and has a misfire or jam at the wrong time. They seem to work as well as the Magpul followers. The last round seems to strip off of the stainless steel surface very nicely. I would have preferred they come in a 6-pack since I carry extra mags 6 at a time.

Good product, made my magazines perform perfect instead of two shots at a time. I had to shorten for the 20 round mags though or it cut out 3 rounds. On 30 round mags worked perfect. On the spring subject, I did not recieve any instructions, but i just turned my spring upside down and attached it to the other end, easy install and performed flawless.

You put the spring on wrong. The spring does not attach in the same way on these as they did with the old follower. You should have bothered to read the instructions.

I ordered a pack of these to replace the old-style followers in some Stoner 20-round aluminum mags I had since CTD doesn't carry Magpul followers, figuring they would be the same thing. They would be - except that the hole where the spring attaches to the follower is about a quarter inch too far forward, so that the topmost front curve of the spring pushes against the front of the follower, causing it to rock backwards and feed very inconsistently. Feeling the excess friction, I loaded both newly modified magazines, removed the firing pin from my rifle and proceeded to cycle 40 rounds thru the rifle manually to test for function - big mistake. 7 rounds didn't strip off the magazine and jammed into the chamber mouth, pushing the bullet completely back into the case in 4 of the 7 rounds - and I only made it thru 30 rounds before I decided to save the last 10 from a terrible death. Long story short - take your money elsewhere and buy Magpul followers, until CTD decides to carry them. I'm a loyal buyer and I love CTD, but this is a poorly designed product and will give you nothing but trouble.
