Not designed properly.
The magazine fits very tight in my late 70's Sterling AR180. You have to smack the bottom of the magazine very hard to get the release to catch. The bolt won't close when the Magazine is inserted. The construction is rugged. But the design is flawed. Pros: Rugged construction.. Cons: Very tight fit. Does not work with my AR180.

Buying several more...
I have two of these magazines and they run flawlessly in my circa 1965 AR 180.

The price is the only goo
The price is the only good thing about this magazine. You have to slap it in hard to catch, but you cannot pull the bolt back with the magazine in the AR-180. You have to file the rear notch on the mag to match the original metal mag. One mag down, five more to go. What a joke!
