Not sure if this belongs in the bolt gun forum or semi auto forum, so I’ll drop it here in the equipment forum.
I have a scar 17 which takes the FN mags. I have a remmy 5R which takes the AICS mags.
I have been thinking of buying an aftermarket lower for the scar to take the SR25 mags and getting a ruger precision rifle that takes the SR25 mags as well. I’d have one mag for 2 different platforms. It seems to make sense, but is it worth it? Am I looking for a solution to a nonexistent problem? Instead of worrying about grabbing the correct mags for the correct guns, I can just grab any old mag.
The cost difference is pretty much a wash between stocking up on the cheaper magpul mags and cost of the scar lower vs stocking up on FN mags.
