The thing that really sells this for me is there's still the ability to use legacy mags with the adaptor. I'll seriously consider this if it's $200-400
What really interests me is how the mag would function with other rounds like .50 Beowulf, and .458 SOCOM, because if they play well, or just need a different follower that would be HUGE for people that shoot either of those rounds.
@@bunanahamock2960 I was more thinking making short fat 20 rounds. Thought it would be nice and compact for the MDR or even an AR with a bipod. But yea 25 would probably be the limit for viability.
Two questions, are there other magazine sizes in the pipeline? (For instance a short 35ish rounder that's as short as a standard 20? And maybe longer 70ish rounders that are about the length of a pmag40? One to keep some enhanced capacity with a lower vertical profile, and one for max firepower?
Will there be different magazine sizes other than 53? Something like a super compct 20rnd and a super big 80rnd magazine? That would help with prone or hunting stands.
This looks genuinely promising, but you need to consider a *_SIXTY_* round magazine for production AR users - especially *_Combat Veterans_* - think in "30's" when it comes to ammunition, a conspicuously oddball number of 53 rounds leaves 7 left over and that makes both the mental math and ammunition accountability a logistical pain Likely it will leave someone assuming they have more ammo available than they have, embarrassing in a 2/3-gun match, but potentially lethal in a defensive situation This appears very clever in its "Outside the Box" thinking, being that it includes an adaptor for existing thirty round magazines and it has my interest, but you must consider a magazine capacity with an even sixty rounds
I will go as far as suggesting a 50 round mag that's even shorter. This whole "think in 30" is just a training issue. There are combat vet being superstitious and only load 28/29 for the mag they carry. Beside, pmag with window is also a very real thing. Point being we already move away from the standard 30 round, there is no reason to get stuck in the box. If it is really that big of an issue, just make a bunch of 30 rounder version and issue that to the most of the troops. Then give the 50 rounders to the "saw" gunner.
Honest question I have is, will you be making a quad stack for the. 308/762x51 There exists a quad stack for 762x39 they have a similar base for the bullet the 308 is only longer. Because would honestly love to see an MDR version with quadstack capability for both 7.62 and 5.56 ammo 5-10 years down the line to keep its multi caliber capability. Call it mdr next or some sort haha But for real, would be great to see a mdr capable of receiving quadstack mags for both 762 and 556.
Need this for MDRX, drum mags aren't very compatible for them. Also a snap sleeve might be more efficient for pmag compatibility, given the situation you may have to use a p-mag would probably be on the fly.
How do the clip on magwell adpater pieces work exactly? are you able to install them through the bottom or do you have to separate the upper and the lower and insert them through the top? Any options for different colors offered when available? Looking forward to seeing how these work out, hopefully they release soon!
Any update on when this will be released? Washington state just passed a high capacity magazine ban that goes into effect on June 1st once Inslee signs the bill. I'm hoping to get a couple of these with several mags prior to that.

I literally have my first AR build on hold waiting for this Quattro-15 to come to market. I hope I'm not waiting in vain or for more than 3 months to 4 years. Stop hyping it up already and sell the darn thing. I'd really like to get out to the outdoor range for the summer with this baby and the Fostech Echo Trigger that I'll be dropping in.
When we are getting close to having a release date, we will let everybody know. If you are on our Q15 email list you will get any updates as well as the opportunity to purchase when the time arrives.
Neat concept... Skeletonized lower is not that sexy with the cut outs. 2 those mags need to be 60 rounds and not 53.....ammo comes usually in 20 round boxes and now some companies working on 30 round boxes...othrr then that looks cool
Do not skeletonize the magwell. Sure, dirt won't enter while the magazine is in. But it can collect on the edge of those cutouts. Then you pull out the magazine, the mud _slides inside the magwell,_ and is pushed up _into the action,_ causing major malfunctions. If you're milling it out, why mill all the way through? Just thin out the metal, but leave some to keep mud out. Otherwise users would end up taping around the magwell or something like that. The worse cutouts are at the top of the magwell. Looks like mud, dust, and pebbles are going to collect right at the top of the magazine, and enter the inside of the magwell when the magazine is removed. This pre-production sample allows foreign matter to enter the inside of the magwell from the sides and above because of those cutouts. There's a reason we generally don't see magwell cutouts like this on serious rifles. I'm all for milling away more metal, and I love lightweight receivers that do so. I'm in favor of removing unnecessary material over a rifle. If it's not contributing strength or any other significant benefit, it's dead weight and the weapon is better without it. But cutting all the way through so that dirt can more easily work itself into the action is compromising reliability. Don't mill holes. Just mill the metal thin where strength is unnecessary. Then most of the benefit is achieved without compromising reliability.
What if you mags Break cus with the 30 mags you have plenty of the the spare and give to your friends but with the 53 mags you will have less back up mags
@@DesertTechUT Would larger rounds like 458 Socom or 50 Beowulf be possible to double stack in your magazines? Or is it just not mechanically possible?

Any plans to allow the MDR and MDRX to accept this mag? Or any plans for a 308 version? This is mag is game breaking :D
Once you get passed 25 rounds of 308 its pretty unviable. 2 fuckin heavy
@@bunanahamock2960 I was more thinking making short fat 20 rounds. Thought it would be nice and compact for the MDR or even an AR with a bipod.

Perhaps 6.5 grendel would fill that sweet spot
@@LordPerique yea or 6mm ARC, beefs up the AR15 nicely. And 6.5 and 6 share the same magazine and bolt so it's a 2 for one.
.308 (drool..)

I hope so! That would be awesome.
30 and for competition 40 or 45 round magazines were always enough for me. But i can see how something like the marines M27 iar can bebefit from this.

It is truly a great philosphical debate wether to go for this or a kp15.
Please make a mag for 6mm arc that way we can have more intermediate capabilities in above standard capacity
Mcr upper on this lower would be cool
This with a FRT type trigger gives the People a huge advantage since full auto belt feds aren't really a viable option for most.
Like it! But eats it things Like .485 SOCOM, SPC, etc.?
And after Shot Show 22 there is also a question: MDRX in 8.6 BLK? In SRS?
I'm sold. when?

I'd have to do some mods, but that would be an awesome upgrade for the Tinck Arms Perun X16
Freakin stellar. Will the PSA Jakl upper work with this lower since your bolt catch can’t be swapped out?
Now all you gotta do is make a 10rd, flush fit, rotary mag, for those in less free states.
Need this for MDRX, drum mags aren't very compatible for them.
Also a snap sleeve might be more efficient for pmag compatibility, given the situation you may have to use a p-mag would probably be on the fly.

you can insert them either from the bottom or you can separate the upper and lower:

not yet
how long before you have that for the MDR?
Any plans to make it into an 80 round magazine that is shorter than a 40 round ar15 magazine?

Are there any AR-15 stocks with storage compartments large enough to fit the magazine adapters?

No

dunno, does it connect to the lower differently than a standard AR?
@@DesertTechUT connects the same but the bolt catch/release is different like your lower.
