Good evening,

I’m looking for some metal magazines for my Aero AR-10 chambered in 6.5CM. I have elander mags but am wanting a few ten rounders. Does anyone know how well the D&H mags function in an Aero lower/upper combo in 6.5? I have a few C-Products Defense mags that look good but that’s all they do lol. I’ve read they work great in an Armalite pattern rifle.

Thanks!
 
All my D&H mags work great in my PSA Gen II's. Both 6.5CM and 308.

I do take them apart and clean the interior, then lube them with DriFilm spray.

Others haven't had as much success... I strong suggest you buy 1 of each type and try them in your Aero.

The lack of a Mil-Spec guideline for large frame AR's leads to variances.

FWIW, lots of people have C-Products mags work fine, they didn't for me and mine.
 
Nice. I think I’ll probably do exactly that. Id read the same thing about CPD trying to make an informed decision. Now… if I can find D&H and ASC in stock at the same place I’ll grab them lol.
 
Duramags work great in Aero, Seekins, and Daniel Defense large frame lowers. Same for Pmags although these restrict OAL. Elanders not so much unless you push up on them. Elander mags suck so stay away. I have only used D&H 556 mags and like them but have never used the large frame variety.
 
The three duramags I’ve got don’t work at all I. My aero. All of them have a bolt over cartridge malfunction. The bolt pushes my tips into the feed ramps by dragging the over the casing about midway down it. If there’s an exception… I’m it most times.

Weird stuff. Thats the problem I had with elander mags. My dpms style mags (don’t know the brand) and the duramags which are nearly identical have been flawless in all three lowers.

Which mags worked for that lower?
