Works best on AK74

This device works great on AK74 (5.56 and 5.45 guns) models. Not so good on 7.62 rifles. The mags tend to fit too snug and don't even try with drum mags. That being said the magwell does work very well on 74's. It does feed the mag in at the right angle and helps with reloads. I would only recommend for use with 5.45 or 5.56 AK's

Fits WASR 10 after fitting.

I used this to complete a double stack mod on my economy WASR 10. I used the unit as a pattern to open up my receiver. Fitting of the small metal tang was the only issue. Minor grinding and opening the spring opening was all that was required. This is not a bolt on but with minor fitting it works well. I am using tapco 20rds with a nice snug fit.

AK-47 MFER Mag Well works

Due to the wide variety of AK variants out there the MFER mag well must be fitted to each individual rifle. The receivers of different manufacturers differ in thickness so you will need to make adjustments accordingly. The different thickness in the sheet metal receivers may require you to remove the little metal piece on the MFER that clips over the front of the mag well and open it up to fit the thicker receivers. Just make sure you remove the metal piece from the MFER before making the adjustment. Also you may need to use a dremel tool or file to trim the rear of the MFER around the area of the mag release to fit properly. The above adjustments are not difficult to do. Once properly fitted the MFER works great. Makes your AK mag changes smoother, easier, and much faster.
