Duration: 4:58

This video demonstrates the ARMagLock, a device designed to comply with restrictive firearm laws in states like California that prohibit detachable magazines. The ARMagLock effectively pins the magazine release, requiring the separation of the upper and lower receivers to change magazines. The speaker, an experienced firearms instructor, provides a clear, step-by-step guide on how to perform a reload with the ARMagLock installed, comparing it to a 'light machine gun style' reload.

Quick Summary

The ARMagLock device allows AR-15 owners to comply with restrictive non-detachable magazine laws by pinning the magazine release. Reloading requires separating the upper and lower receivers, then rejoining them after the magazine change, a process described as 'light machine gun style'.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the ARMagLock work to comply with California's magazine restrictions?

The ARMagLock pins the AR-15's magazine release button to the upper receiver. This prevents the magazine from being detached until the upper and lower receivers are separated, effectively making the magazine non-detachable without field stripping the firearm.

What is the reload process for an AR-15 with an ARMagLock installed?

To reload, you pull the rear takedown pin, pivot the upper receiver open, drop the empty magazine, insert a new one, close the upper receiver, reinsert the takedown pin, and charge the bolt. This is described as a 'light machine gun style' reload.

Can I still reload my AR-15 quickly with an ARMagLock?

While not as fast as a standard detachable magazine, the ARMagLock reload process is efficient. It involves two simple steps: separating the receivers and then rejoining them after the magazine change, allowing for legal compliance.

What is the difference between an ARMagLock and a bullet button?

Both devices aim to comply with non-detachable magazine laws. A bullet button typically requires a tool to release the magazine, whereas the ARMagLock requires the user to separate the upper and lower receivers, offering a tool-less method.
