Magpul PMAG 5 AC AICS Short-Action 5-Rd Mag Black

Description

The Magpul PMAG 5 AC strikes a balance between capacity and practicality for hunters and precision shooters using short-action AICS-pattern bottom metal. At just 5 rounds, it meets common hunting regulations while delivering the same reliability you'd get from larger capacity PMAGs. The magazine uses Magpul's GEN M3 polymer construction, which resists impact and crushing better than older materials, keeping the overall weight down without sacrificing durability.

What Makes the PMAG 5 AC Dependable

Inside, you get a self-lubricating follower that feeds consistently over time without needing special maintenance. The stainless steel spring resists corrosion, so the magazine performs whether you're hunting in wet conditions or sitting in a dry safe for months. The flared floorplate isn't just for looks either—it makes loading and unloading smoother, and the removable design means you can take it apart for cleaning in seconds.

Practical Features for Real-World Use

The paint-pen dot matrix on the magazine base gives you a place to mark your loads or ammunition type. The aggressive texture on the body provides confident grip even with wet or gloved hands. Compatible with short-action cartridges built on a 0.470" case head including .308 Winchester, 6.5 Creedmoor, 7mm-08 Remington, .260 Remington, and .243 Winchester. The magazine accepts overall cartridge lengths up to 2.86 inches.

If you need extra capacity for competition or range work, the follower leg can be clipped to bump capacity to 6 rounds. It's straightforward to modify, and Magpul designed it that way on purpose. The entire magazine comes together as a purpose-built tool for bolt-action shooters who don't need maximum capacity but won't compromise on how the magazine feeds and handles.
