CHARTER ARMS AR-7 8RD MAGAZINE 22LR Reviews & Ratings

Original, blued steel magazine for proper fit and reliable function in Charter Arms, ArmaLite, and current-production Henry AR-7 Survival Rifles. No need to struggle with getting an old worn or damaged mag to work when you can get a brand-new replacement just like the one that came with your gun. Have plenty of spares on hand for backup and plinking.

SPECS: Steel, blued. Plastic follower, black. Fits AR-7 rifles manufactured by ArmaLite, Charter Arms, and Henry Repeating Arms.

Fitment is junk. Claims for Charter AR-7

Does not fit at all. Waste of money.

Not for HenryAR7 survival

Would not lock in. Not appropriate for Henry AR7. Just falls out even when empty!

Won't Fit Mag Well

Read the other reviews, should have listened. This magazine does not fit a Charter Arms AR-7. It is too big. Would have to thin the material too much to make it fit.

No good for my Henry AR-&

Tried to use with my Henry AR-7 but it kept jamming on the 3rd or 4th feed every time. I do not know why but I tried it with 4 different types of ammo and it seemed to work best with the CCI- HP 22LR the best. Remington, Winchester,& CI did not work well at all(not enough power).

Does not actually fit the AR-7

Dimensions do not match the factory AR-7 (Henry) magazine. Length of the magazine (front-to-back, in direction of the cartridge) is nearly 1/100th of an inch too long. Sure, you can force it into the magazine well, but you'll end up using pliers to get it back out. I'm sending mine back, asking for a refund, and ordering a spare mag directly from Henry.
