Using the right magazine

[Gil Martin]

A fellow shooter stopped by today and needed help with a problem with the magazine he purchased for his M1A. The magazine would not lock into the magazine well. It never would because it was a 20 round magazine for an FN/FAL or an L1A1. It worked just fine in my L1A1. This guy is a regular shooter at our monthly rifle matches and should know the right magazine. Fortunately the fellow has other magazines that will fit his M1A.

On the bright side, he gave me the magazine for my trouble. All the best...
