I’ve noticed some custom actions available nowadays are not compatible with traditional hinged floor plates. This is weird to me. Impact NBK, for example.
1. Why? Why would a manufacturer not offer a BDL style bottom metal? Why are AICS/AW mags so popular? Seems to be a new standard. What is their advantage? I don’t get it. I think they are ugly, feel cheap since most are plastic and they are awkward with the way they hang down.
2. What is the mechanical difference between AICS and AW magazines? Pros and cons of one over the other?
3. I’ve seen some types of DBM that advertise “flush mount” but they don’t really appear to be. There’s still some amount sticking out. Are any truly flush mount? Or who makes the closest thing to flush? Preferably metal too.
