AI/AE 8 round magazines
I have heard that Accuracy International built an 8 round single stack magazine for the AI/AE but never seen one, does anyone know if they exist and if so where I could get one from?

Re: AI/AE 8 round magazines
Thats the first i've heard of an 8 Round, unless that was maybe for the Long actioned AWM??
I know originally the AE MK1 only came with a 5 round mag and the AW had a 5 or 10 but they weren't interchangable :cool2:

A common mistake that people make when trying to design something completely foolproof is to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools!!

Apparently it was an early magazine for the single stack AE.
Re: AI/AE 8 round magazines
Mmmmm, or have AI just designated their 10 round mags for the AE and AICS as 8? The couple I had with mine you couldn't get 10 in to save your life and 9 was a struggle........!!
In 1978 I was told by my grand dad that the secret to rifle accuracy is, a quality bullet, fired down a quality barrel..... How has that changed?

Just phoned a mate who bought one of the very first AEs. He's never heard of them.
Re: AI/AE 8 round magazines
AE had 5 and could not interchange with AW 10 rounder, seems that has changed now.??

I found a mention here: http://world.guns.ru/sniper/sniper-rifl ... -ae-e.html
As a standard this rifle isequipped with 5 rounds box magazines, 8 rounds magazines are optional.
