So I was just walking around herb phillipsons in Liverpool and I see a magazine that looks like a thirty rounder for an ar, m4, etc. I assume there is a stopper? I mean why would they make those when people can easily take them out?
10 rd MAG at herb phillipson's that looks like thirty?

Why do the sell cars that do over 65 mph? You can easily break the speed limit.
The mags meet the requirements of the law. 10 rd capacity.

The 10/30's have a protrusion in the floor plate that blocks the 30 body to 10 rounds only. If you want to go nuts you can epoxy it in place so it is super permanent.
They are better for matches and combat as they are easier to manipulate than the short 10 round mags.

Ok thanks, that is a lot more helpful

That's like silicone boobs on a blonde democrat. Looks good but still dumb.

Yeah but they are easier to handle than a 32B cup.
I don't get it either. I use 10 rounders a lot at the range and have no trouble with them even though I'm a total fumble fingers. I like 20 rounders best I think.

Personally, I think the whole "easier to grab" argument is an excuse to get magazines that look normal. It's all about looks for some.
I had no such issues with ten rounders with ranger baseplates.

Nobody makes a 10 rd mag pouch. Everything is designed around the standard capacity size.
Storing them in a box is fine for range use, but what do you do when a chest rig or battle belt is needed.

I went and checked them out.
They're the Hexmag 10/30 magazines.
According to the Hexmag website, the internals are different than the standard 30 rd mags .
The spring is shorter and there is a spacer between the floor plate & spring. They cannot be converted to standard capacity withou replacing the spring and removing the "True Riser" system ( spacer).
$14.99 , black & OD green if anyone is interested.

Good point, but what about an adapter that mounts two 10 rounders back to back? That would fill a 30 round mag pouch I should think.
Also a good point. I guess there are some valid reasons for these 10/30 mags after all.

Try grabbing a stubby 10 rounder out of a standard mag pouch with any sort of speed or proficiency... it absolutely gives you a larger area to grab and control.
For static range use most people wont notice a difference, but if your racing a clock every bit helps.

I have some Hexmag 10/30 mags. They work great. Only problem at the rifle range I get is fudds bitching at me for having illegal mags. I'm tired of explaining they're legal so I bought some 10's so I can be left alone

Man, I'm so sick of that too. Between the 10/30 mags and showing up with a SKS with bayonet, it's getting ridiculous. Fudd say " That gun is illegal guy" " You know what sir, it probably is but I'm going to shoot it anyways. Thanks"
