Bremmer SAR15 Carbine

[browningautorifle]

I'd love to get some of the new gen mags, once mine need refurb. The follower jamming the bolt rearward is unsuitable because you have a spring loaded metal part smashing the plastic parts of the mag. When you remove the mag the bolt returns. With the actual hold open the bolt stays open to ease loading and you carry out standard drills of the bolt catch to close up and load first round.

If I could find the mag inserts here in Canada that go into metal mags, I'd take a few...maybe ten...

Hi Jim,
That's exactly how they work on my Bremmer. The original M261 mag inserts only hold 10 rounds and the follower does not stick up far enough to jam the bolt back. The Catch22 operates in the same was as the original 223 version but is longer so that it is operated by the follower on the 22lr magazine. The Better Mag conversion using the S&W M&P 15-22 mags is fully functional too. I have not seen any other options available here in the UK but I am no expert.
Wish I could help more.

Regards,

John.
