CZ-457 experts help on magazines

There is absolutely no down side to an extended release in a chassis where it is protected from accidental contact, as long as you're using 10 round mags or L3i 13 rounders. There may be some poorly designed extensions that could interfere, or maybe the factory 5 round mags, but you're probably not using those in an ACC anyway.

I'd install it. Might as well get some a L3I bolt knob and mlok weights as well!

Speaking of weights, This thing is pretty heavy. Other than shifting the balance point, are weights needed? I did put the Executive knob on it, but will have to shoot it a bit more before I decide which style fits my needs best.

Only needed for balance. In my 20" MTR in a gen1 ACC, I ran ~3lbs of weight out front to get it to balance on a Schmedium nicely. Some people like 20+lb 22LR rifles, but not me.

There are several merchants on ebay that have them in stock. L3i was out of stock on their billet mags tho.... but plenty of OEM mags available on ebay.

We should have the billet mags back in stock right after the holidays

I found a company online that still had some L3i 10 round mags in stock. 2 are out for delivery to me today for my testing.

I haven't tried the L3i 10rd magazines, but I have 4 of the 13rd magazines. I have put thousands of rounds through them in my CZ 457 MDT chassis model with NOT ONE malfunction whatsoever. I can only assume the 10rd magazines are just as reliable, at least in my particular rifle.
