MDT Medium-Action Magazine — 5 Rounds | .30-06 Springfield / 6.5x55 Swedish | Black Nitride Steel | Model 104940-BLK (104940BLK) | UPC 682157400720
Classic long-action ballistics in a compact, ultra-reliable package. The MDT 5-Round Medium-Action Magazine (Model 104940-BLK / 104940BLK, UPC 682157400720) is purpose-built for .30-06 Springfield and 6.5x55 Swedish in platforms that use AICS-pattern Medium (MED) length magazines. Its double-stacked single-feed (DSSF) geometry shortens overall magazine height while preserving smooth, controlled feeding—ideal for prone hunting shots, tripod work, and field steel practice. A black nitride steel body resists corrosion and wear, keeping feed lips true through heavy use and harsh weather. MDT TAC+2Ammunition Depot+2

Why this MDT MED magazine stands out
DSSF geometry = compact + smooth feeding
MDT’s double-stacked single-feed design gives you a shorter magazine with excellent round presentation, reduced snagging, and more clearance over bags and terrain. MDT TAC
Built for Medium-length actions
Specifically sized for AICS Medium (MED) mag wells common on short-magnum/medium-length builds (e.g., Defiance XM). Not for short-action (.308 length) or long-action (3.560/3.715/3.850) cuts. Pacific Tool & Gauge
Black nitride steel durability
The nitrided steel body shrugs off rust, abrasion, and dents that can distort feed lips—maintaining dimensional stability season after season. blackmarketarms.com+1
Hunt-ready 5-round profile
Low-snag height for prone shots and tight blinds, while aligning with many regional capacity limits. Buds Gun Shop

Pro tips for best performance
Confirm the pattern: MED/XM mags are unique; short-action and long-action AICS cuts use different lengths. Pacific Tool & Gauge
Torque to spec: Correct action & bottom-metal torque preserves mag catch height and feed angle. (See your chassis manual.)
Cycle dummy rounds: Verify COAL and ogive clearance, especially with long, high-BC bullets. Palmetto State Armory
Keep it clean: Pop the floorplate (where applicable) to clear dust and moisture; wipe feed lips periodically. Palmetto State Armory
Frequently asked questions
Q: Is this magazine polymer or metal?
A: Metal—a black nitride steel body for longevity and feed-lip stability. blackmarketarms.com+1
Q: Will it work in my standard AICS long-action chassis?
A: Only if that chassis uses the Medium (MED/XM) mag length. Many long-action systems are 3.560/3.715/3.850 and require different magazines. Pacific Tool & Gauge
Q: What’s the benefit of DSSF?
A: A shorter overall height and smoother feeding thanks to double-stack storage with single-feed presentation. MDT TAC
