Who This Is For
This magazine is purpose-built for California residents and shooters in other restricted states who run an AR-15 platform chambered in 6.5 Grendel and refuse to sacrifice quality for compliance.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the 10-round block truly permanent, and can it be reversed?
Yes. ASC uses a proprietary block-and-rivet system that permanently limits the magazine to 10 rounds. This method is designed to be tamper-evident and irreversible, making the magazine fully compliant with California's magazine capacity restrictions and similar laws in other states. Attempting to remove or defeat the block would damage the magazine and is illegal in restricted states.
Will this magazine work reliably with all 6.5 Grendel AR-15 uppers and bolt carrier groups?
ASC magazines are engineered specifically for the 6.5 Grendel cartridge and are compatible with standard AR-15 lower receivers paired with 6.5 Grendel uppers and bolt carrier groups from major manufacturers. The anti-tilt follower and precise internal geometry promote smooth feeding and reliable function. As with any magazine, it's a good practice to confirm compatibility with your specific rifle configuration before extended use.
Why choose stainless steel over a polymer magazine for 6.5 Grendel?
Stainless steel magazines offer several advantages over polymer alternatives, particularly in demanding conditions. The heat-treated 410 stainless steel construction used by ASC won't swell in high heat or become brittle and crack in freezing temperatures — common failure points for polymer magazines. The result is a more consistent feed lip geometry over the magazine's lifetime, which directly translates to better feeding reliability and greater long-term durability, especially for hunters and shooters who expose their gear to the elements.
