Most Helpful Positive Review Most reliable enhanced anti tilt follower by magpul
As described, enhanced yellow anti tilt follower for your USGI magazine for the .556 caliber. I used this to replace my 350 legend 20 round duramag standard capacity orange anti tilt follower that they provided. I did some modification on the this yellow anti tilt follower, a little rotary tool did the magic, now the spring fits perfectly. All and all best enhanced anti tilt follower by Magpul, highly recommended if you’re having feeding issues with your USGI mags for your ar15 platform.

Simple Upgrade That Works — Smooth and Reliable Feeding

by Learner, Verified Owner from NY, United States Written on July 15, 2025
I installed the Magpul AR Magazine Followers in a few of my old USGI aluminum mags chambered in .223 Rem/5.56, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. The difference compared to the old mil-spec followers is night and day.

These drop right in and fit perfectly — no modification needed. They move smoothly inside the mag body and don’t tilt or bind up like the cheap original followers sometimes do. Feeding has been flawless since I swapped them in — no jams, no misfeeds, even with mixed ammo.

One thing I really like is the bright color (mine are the yellow ones) — it makes it easy to check if a mag is empty at a glance. The polymer feels tough and durable, just like everything else Magpul makes.

For the price, this is one of the easiest and cheapest upgrades you can make to breathe new life into old AR mags. If you’re still running standard green or black mil-spec followers, do yourself a favor and swap them out for these — you won’t regret it.
Pros:
  • All
Cons:
  • None
Best Used for:
  • USGI mags

Replace Original Followers in Brownell's USGI metal magazines

by Dave, Verified Owner from MA, United States Written on April 17, 2025
Brownell's 5.56mm USGI mags have one drawback. Great price but have the standard followers, not anti-tilt. These fit perfectly and ride within the magazines very smoothly eliminating potential of misfeeds while keeping feedline proper. Package of 3, definately worth the upgrade.
Pros:
  • GREAT PRICE
  • Replaced non-ant-follower perfectly
  • effective upgrade for less expensive mag
Cons:
  • None
Best Used for:
  • Brownells AR USGI MAGAZINES
Would recommend: Yes

Didn't help

by joseph, Verified Owner from MI, United States Written on December 27, 2024
Tried this to solve the cycling issues wiht my .350 Legend, as others have said it worked for them. No change for me, but I'm sure others may have a different experience than me. My solution was a Lancer mage, worked great.

This follower is an absolute must for any old GI magazine!! The old standard issue followers tilt and jam, where these magpul replacement followers make those old mags unstoppable!
Pros:
  • Unbeatable performance, no tilting, self lubricating.
Cons:
  • You will want to buy these for every gi mag you own!
