The ProMag AKA5 fills a practical role for AK shooters who want a no-frills spare magazine without breaking the bank. Built from DuPont Zytel polymer with a waffle-pattern body that gives you something to grip during reloads, this 30-rounder is designed specifically for AK-74 and Century Arms WASR-3 rifles in .223 Remington and 5.56 NATO.
Inside, you get an injection-molded polymer follower paired with a heat-treated chrome silicon wire spring. That spring engineering matters because it's meant to handle loaded storage without fatigue and deliver consistent feeding through your magazines' lifespan. The follower itself is self-lubricating, which keeps things moving smoothly without needing you to add grease or other maintenance headaches.
This is a polymer magazine, so set expectations accordingly. It weighs less than steel alternatives and won't rust, which is useful if you're storing mags long-term or running them in wet conditions. That said, polymer feed lips are the weak point on any plastic magazine, and .223/5.56 magazines for AK platforms run narrower tolerances than their 7.62×39 cousins. Some users report tight initial springs that loosen after a few loadings, and fitting may be needed depending on your specific rifle's tolerances. If your WASR-3 or AK-74 doesn't accept it smoothly, light hand-fitting of the front lug is sometimes necessary.
ProMag backs every magazine with a lifetime warranty against manufacturer defects, and it's made in the USA. At this price point, you're trading some durability for capacity and cost. For range use and training, it works. For mission-critical applications, steel or Magpul PMAGs are worth the extra spend.
Yes, the AKA5 is specifically designed for AK-74 and Century Arms WASR-3 rifles. It's also compatible with other AK-47 platform rifles in .223/5.56. However, AK magazine fitment varies slightly between rifles due to production tolerances, so minor fitting may occasionally be needed at the front lug.
The ProMag AKA5 is chambered for both .223 Remington and 5.56x45mm NATO. Either cartridge will load and feed through the magazine. Your rifle determines which ammo is safe to shoot, not the magazine. Always verify your rifle's chamber specifications before firing.
ProMag springs are designed to be robust, and some users report they're stiff when brand new. This typically loosens with use and repeated loadings over a few range sessions. If you find it difficult to load the last few rounds by hand, that usually resolves itself quickly.
ProMag backs the AKA5 with a lifetime guarantee against manufacturer defects. If you experience a defect with your magazine, you can contact ProMag about a replacement.
