Once a 5.45 mag is 'converted' to use 5.56, can it returned to 5.45?? I know the follower will have to be changed, but have heard that some have the lips moded and some don't.

Also, can 5.56 mags be converted to 5.45 by changing tje follower ??

ive never done it, but i would think that if you don't have to change the feedlips and just the follower, you could change it back and forth. if you do have to open up the feedlips for 5.56, then im guessing the 5.45 rounds would feed too high and might not chamber right

once again, ive never done it, but this is just what comes to mind

We have been discussing this on AK.NET, If you have 5.45 mags, Rusian, East German, Bulgarian etc etc, we have found that ROBARMS Followers www.robarms.com ($5.99 ea) have worked in SAR-3 rifles with no other modification, so we can change them back to 5.45 if needed.

But can you turn, lets say, Yugo 5.56 mags into 5.45 mags?? Or those clear Bulgy mags into 5.45??
