M & M AK Mag Release Lever Kit

Fix the AK Magazine Wobble With the New M +M Inc. Redesigned Magazine Release Lever (MRL) Kit(Patents Pending) While there are a number of methods and mechanisms used for the purpose of securing the AK magazine fit none of them appeared to securely accommodate for the wide degree of variability in design and specifications of magazines in the marketplace. Challenges to consistently experiencing a snugly fitting magazine across platforms and among different magazines include: - The position of the magazine lug varies between manufacturers - The shape of the magazine lug can vary - Common latch release mechanisms tend to be sharp on their single metal edge point of contact which can wear on the magazine lug itself creating irregularities - Lack of guide stops - This wide variety created a situation where some magazines wobble from side-to-side in the magazine well. M + M Inc. designed a solution to the AK magazine wobble that provides an easy fix. - Mike Meier President & CEO stated 'Our newly designed magazine release lever incorporates a self-adjusting feature designed to fit a wide variety of magazines and secure them in any AK-style rifle. This evolutionary design will enhance the performance and enjoyment of any existing AK rifle.' - This is achieved by: Incorporating a flat surface many times larger than the single metal edge contact point of the previous designs - Angling the flat surface so that the leading edge is shorter than the average point of contact of old designs to accommodate magazines with lugs positioned across a wide spectrum - The existing latch/release mechanism on AK rifles is typically riveted in place at the factory. Many consumers do not have riveting tools or any familiarity with rivets. However the rivet serves not only to retain the mechanism in place but also as a pivot point for the lever that the latch/release mechanism consists of. Replacing the old latch/release mechanism is as simple as removing the old rivet generally by drilling it out and putting the new latch/release in place. Where the old one was riveted to the trigger guard a pin and 'E' clip serve as the new hinge and secures it in place.
