    Which magazines work best

    There seems to be a lot of new owners and I would like to ask which magazine set up is people running in their fs2000? I would like to know mag brand, follower, and any add-ons they prefer. I did not find a thread similar to this so I thought I would ask.

    +1. I bought six teflon-coated black ones with the Magpul followers from Bravo Company and they've working flawlessly.

    Any non-STANAG mags are going to have issues, or require modification, or require gun modification one way or another due to the magwell gasket on the FS2K.

    mags in fs 2000

    I am using used military 30 rd. aluminum mags I bought years ago for my car15 the only problems I have had was using them in my Bushmaster M17S Bullpup Rifle so I had to install anti-tip followers then had no more problems. I have a 40 rd. after market steel mag and have used it in the fs2000 several times with no trouble.

    I use the HK 5.56 30 round magazines. Several years ago I was able to get a good price on them, but after a quick search it seems the cheapest I could find was $49.95. I do love them and have not had any problems with them. Personal preference for me but I like metal rifle mags.
    We have two companies of Marines running rampant all over the northern half of this island, and three Army regiments pinned down in the southwestern corner, doing nothing. What the hell is going on?

    I run black teflon DGS Arms w/Magpul followers thru my 2000. Never had a hiccup. I run the stock FN mag as well (I did drop a magpul follower into it). All of my AR mags run thru my FS2000.

    I just bought a few ASC magazines. I haven't had a chance to test them yet but on the surface they seem to be better than the factory magazine because the follower doesn't get jammed. I will probably do as others have and pop a magpul follower in the factory magazine.

    If I have the story correct ASC is a company that emerged from a split C-Products. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.
