Springfield Armory M1A 20-Round 7.62x51mm NATO / .308 Win / 6.5 Creedmoor Factory Magazine - Blued - MA5021 - UPC: 706397860578
Product Description
The Springfield Armory MA5021 is a factory OEM 20-round steel magazine engineered specifically for M1A and USGI M14 platform rifles chambered in 7.62x51mm NATO (.308 Winchester) and 6.5 Creedmoor. Manufactured to strict military-specification standards, this standard-capacity magazine delivers flawless feeding performance, precise lockup, and rugged structural integrity required for hard-use shooting applications.
Constructed from heavy-gauge, heat-treated carbon steel, the magazine body features a durable blued finish that offers protection against corrosion and wear. The precision-stamped feed lips and front latching hole interface seamlessly with the receiver's rock-and-lock magazine well, preventing movement and ensuring proper cartridge presentation into the chamber ramp under rapid cycling conditions.
Internally, the MA5021 utilizes a high-tensile steel spring paired with a smooth-operating steel follower, providing consistent upward pressure on the cartridge stack. Designed for complete reliability in field and target environments, this original equipment magazine is the gold standard for restoring or expanding your M1A's operational payload.
