M5 Stealth DM M24 Detachable Magazine System *New Upgraded Mil-Spec Platform* (H.P. White Tested)
New! The United States government (and the Israeli Defense Force) recently approved release of the Remington 700 Short Action / M24 upgraded M5 Mil-Spec Detachable Magazine System for commercial distribution. (We're working on getting the long action in, it's delayed because they are upgrading the M24 to the .300 Win chambering and all the long action production is currently taken for that.) Dubbed the M5 Stealth DM System, it's is now in our warehouses, complete with Accuracy International and/or Accurate-Mag magazines. Why us? We were selected for release because we're having stocks made to fit, so you don't have to unless you want to.
Milled from 7075-T6 billet aluminum, this design brings forward the current focus to modularize weapons systems for ease of future upgrade, standardize parts and common part dimensions for interchangeability with foreseeable developments and most importantly provide the modern warrior with an improved degree of familiarity when changing weapon models and tactics in all future battlefield scenarios. To summarize, what we are seeing from our perspective is the battle-proven Remington Model 700 (military designation M40, M24) being upgraded to the reliability and handling characteristics of the M16 / AR15 platform. You'll see many more modular-sniper type accessories being released for commercial sale on our site soon.
The assembly itself is one seriously rugged unit, cnc machined and hard-coated black. The extended latch assembly looks very rugged, the latch itself could be filed down if the experienced operator determined a shorter throw is desired. I like it where it is as it is quickly able to be engaged with the trigger finger, dropping the "empty" and the AR-Type magazine funnel seems to find the fresh mag on its own and suck it right into receiver with no fear of error or misalignment. Therein lies the advantage over previous "flush-bottom" systems - one can stay more easily target-engaged during a stressful drop 'n swap reload.
Nominal Specs (Stocky): M5 Steath BDM mil-spec hardware - 4 oz; 7075-T6 Alloy .308 / 5 round magaine - 5 oz; .308 / 10 round magazine - 8.5 oz .300 WSM / 7 round magazine - 8.5 oz
NOTE: STANDARD 700 BDL SHORT ACTION STOCKS MUST BE FITTED TO THE "M5/BADGER DM" INLETTING FOR THIS SYSTEM, IT'S THE SAME INLETTING, TAKES THE SAME AICS-TYPE MAGAZINES, JUST AN IMPROVED DESIGN. AS WITH ANY DETACHABLE MAGAZINE SYSTEM, THE PILLAR-HEIGHT IS CRUCIAL FOR MIL-SPEC RELIABILITY, SO WE INCLUDE THE PILLARS AND THE SCREWS TO PUT IT ALL TOGETHER IF YOU ARE MODIFYING YOUR STOCK. (Of course, you can simply measure the height of your existing pillars (1.075" rear / .720" front) and adjust if required. Any adjustments should be made from the bottom of the stock as the M5 mil-spec hardware is a tad thicker than the standard 700 floorplate.)
700 BDL LONG ACTION STEALTH BOTTOM METAL IS DESIGNED TO BOLT INTO STANDARD 700 BDL STOCKS. THIS IS POSSIBLE BECAUSE THE LONG ACTION MAGAZINES ARE SINGLE STACK, WHEREAS THE (ABOVE) SHORT ACTION MAGAZINES ARE DOUBLE STACK (WIDER). BECAUSE MOST OF OUR 700 BDL LA STOCKS HAVE ALUMINUM PILLARS AND/OR BEDDING BLOCKS, NO SPECIAL PILLARS OR SCREWS ARE REQUIRED OR INCLUDED WITH THE LA VERSION.
Accuracy International is frequently out of magazines but I have been testing the Accurate-Mag brand also and they work great also. We currently have both in stock and use them interchangeably.
Stocky's take: I'm swapping my M5 flush-mounts out on every rifle that it would be appropriate on. At our machine shop-direct pricing, we suggest you do the same, you don't even need to change magazines.
