XTech Tactical MAG47 Elite: Superior Performance

Finding a good AK-47 magazine can be challenging, but it doesn’t have to be. XTech Tactical’s MAG47 Elite magazine is designed for the AK-47 platform, made from a rugged composite material, and includes a number of features to improve reliability and durability. The magazine is offered with or without a bold hold open option and has a 30 round capacity. If you’ve been searching for a tough AK mag that isn’t made with a metal housing, this mag’s for you.

XTech Tactical provides details of the magazine:

The [MAG47] Elite offers the same reinforcements as the MAG47mil but without the waffle pattern on the exterior of the magazine. This allows users an option that will more easily fit into and out of magazine pouches and reduces the product’s overall weight.

The MAG47 line has been widely established as the most durable, best fitting, and most reliable AK47 magazine. Since its release, the company has consistently sought customer feedback and desires for their product line. As a result, the company now offers options for all users and preferences in the US.

The company first heard feedback that the market desired an option with a solid steel rear lug. As a result, the MAG47 MIL was born. The MIL offers all the features of the MAG47 (stainless steel reinforced feed lips along with locking lugs along with the company’s legendary polymer formulation) but also adds a solid machined steel rear lug….

The MAG47 Elite is available with and without an optional BHO (bolt hold open) follower, in a 10/30 configuration, and in a discounted 10 pack! The magazines are also shipping cerakote in several different patterns.

The line…includes a Free State Adapter kit (allows the user to convert a 10/30 to a 30rd magazine if they relocate to a non-restricted state).

Jeremy Deadman, the director of sales and marketing of XTech Tactical, said, “This was our last step in positioning ourselves as the undeniable leaders of the US-made AK47 magazine market. The ELITE is another option to go hand in hand with the MAG47 and MAG47 MIL.
