Pretty bad reviews on them though. Seems they either work great or suck depending on your particular rifle. Even reviewers with a PA10 some had no issues while others had issues.

I tried ten of their AR15 magazines with magpul followers, the finish scratches more and more every time they are inserted into the gun and all of them exhibited the followers jamming and feeding issues. Good news is that Brownells awesome C/S took them back and swapped them out for Pmags.

Do you have any experience with the AR-10 (.308/7.62 x 51) Brownells magazines?

No. I commented on my experience because they look to be of the same quality and likely the same manufacturer and there are others commenting on the reviews of the AR-10 pattern mags.

From the negative comments I've read, it looks like the followers weren't cleaned up or deburred from the factory. (unless I read that wrong)
No big deal.
Slide the bottom off, remove spring, grab the follower and hit it with a file or sandpaper.
Reinstall.

OK, no big deal I was just asking.
I have some and will post a review. I bought them because they were recommended by someone who actually does have first hand experience. :AR15firing:

They cause malfunctions in my Colt 901. Shiny spots on top of the feed lips, carrier must be dragging on them.
