The MDT AICS metal magazine is an AICS-pattern detachable box magazine designed for short-action magnum cartridges. It uses MDT’s Double Stack to Single Feed (DSSF) transition to reduce overall magazine height while maintaining reliable feeding geometry. Manufactured from high-strength steel, it is nitrided and finished inside and out with Cerakote Elite for enhanced durability and corrosion resistance.

Note: some rifle platforms (for example certain Remington 700 and Savage 10/11 configurations) may require receiver or feed ramp modification—such as notching the bottom of the feed ramp—to prevent bullet tips from contacting the feed ramp when using these magazines. This product is intended for use in AICS-pattern bottom metal and chassis systems; confirm compatibility with your specific action and bottom metal before installation.
With a low-profile DSSF transition, robust steel construction, and a Cerakote Elite finish, this MDT AICS magazine is designed to integrate into precision and long-range rifle builds that use AICS-pattern bottom metal or chassis. Its combination of reduced overall height and durable finishing makes it a practical option for shooters assembling purpose-built short-action magnum platforms.
