CMMG® led the way in AR-based innovation surrounding the hot, new 350 Legend cartridge designed for the AR-15, and that led the company to develop the first magazines on the market designed to reliably feed the new round in any standard AR-15 magwell. Each CMMG® 350 Legend AR-15 magazine are made with a stainless-steel body treated with an all-black finish. Inside the magazine, users will find an anti-tilt follower that enhances feeding.

The price and capacity also attract scrutiny, particularly regarding their advertised round capacity.
What Reviewers Are Saying
Feeding Performance
65%
A significant number of reviews address the feeding performance of the magazines. While many users experience good functionality, others encounter feeding problems, often linked to the type of follower used. Users commonly suggest replacing the factory orange follower with a non-tilt variant to enhance reliability.
Follower Issues
70%
Multiple reviewers mention dissatisfaction with the orange follower provided in the magazines, stating it lacks anti-tilt features that lead to feeding issues. This has prompted many to swap it for a Magpul follower, resulting in improved performance. The lack of anti-tilt followers is a recurrent theme of concern.
Value and Pricing

Several users critique the pricing of the magazines, questioning their value in relation to performance issues experienced with feeding. Many feel that the magazines are overpriced, especially when they encounter issues that necessitate additional modification for proper functionality.
Capacity Concerns

Capacity is a point of contention for reviewers who express disappointment that the 20-round magazine only holds 19 rounds optimally. Some users assert that the lack of standard capacity magazines limits their appeal, particularly for those looking for home defense options.
Overall Satisfaction
60%
Overall, customer feedback reflects a mix of satisfaction with the basic functioning of the magazines when used correctly but frustration over the initial performance issues attributed to the factory follower, leading to a desire for better designs and features.

Does not have anti-tilt follower
Does not have anti-tilt follower. In the picture I show an anti-tilt follower from another magazine. Neither the CMMG or the duramag have come with an anti-tilt follower. You can buy them separate and add them, but at this price I would expect them to already be in the magazine.

Needs a Non-Tilt Follower
I bought the 20 round mag because of the excellent performance of the 10 round mag which had a non-tilt follower. The provided orange follower nosedives and allows the bolt to shove a round into the front mag wall and push the bullet into the case. You can check by just pushing down on the follower ahead of the feed lips. (Note the pictures show either a yellow or blue follower while an orange follower is provided.There are non-tilt and tilt style followers available in orange). Also except for the markings on the floor plate, this mag appears identical to Duramag magazines including the markings on the mag body. The 20 round magazine has a flat wire spring. The Duramag 10 round mags that I have feed well, have a non-tilt follower and round wire spring. I do not know whether that spring makes a difference. I have changed the follower to a non-tilt Magpul (yellow in color and marked 5.56) and it is a big improvement but in early usage occasionally misfeeds the last round.
