I was reading another post about the Mini14 vs the AR platform, and taking AR magazines.. what all out there takes the abundantly available AR15 magazines that ISNT an AR15?
What rifles take standard AR15 magazines?

Has anyone come out with a semi-auto 5.56x45 centerfire rifle in the past five years that didn't?
Next frontier is gonna be coming up with a semi-auto that takes AI-style mags so you can shoot long COAL ammo in something other than a bolt gun.

I have never heard of the Remington 7615P before. A Rem 7600 takes AR mags, weird gun, I want one.
It would be even better in 308 with AR10 mags

In need of moderation
There is a much smaller list of rifles that take AR mags that are still legal in MD, but still quite a few options.
The CZ Bren is a recent standout IMO. A poor man's SCAR (though still expensive).
I love having rifles other than the AR that take the same mags but it's REALLY HARD to justify investing in other platforms because of how damn cheap and accessorizable the venerable AR is. A decade ago a good AR was $1000+ but they just keep getting cheaper.

My issue as well. Maybe if I had a fair amount more money, or didn’t have kids to spend the money on, it might be different.
But I can buy or build a really nice AR-15 for $800 or well less. A SCAR...let me spend 3x as much on something that doesn’t get the job done much better (if better) that is also easy to get exactly where I want it and for also cheap.
The Bren is the closest to another semi-auto platform in 5.56 that gives me real interest (because kind of SCAR-like, but half the price).
how did you get them to fit?
Yes please tell!

Still a bad idea though.

lol. dont try this at home. This is your brain on cold medicine.
Dang it. I guess my laziness is showing.
Unless I missed it on this stellar list I would add
Czechpoint VZ58 5.56 Might have missed the Taiwanese T91 as well. Nope he got the T91.

Zastava M90NP can be added to that list, not by OP’s standards but mine takes any mag that my Windham HBC does. Even the Hexmag bolt hold open ones work.

Czechpoint VZ58 5.56 is that MD legal??
100% got mine from Duffys.
VZ58 is one of the best options for 7.62*39 the 5.56 guns have not been as popular but are out there.
Heck a VZ58 with a "fixed mag" is even CA legal. Pretty cool as you can just load it via stripper clips from the top like an SKS. Not sure if you can do that with the 5.56 model.
Czech's are crazy that way, keep options open.
When I get my storage situation improved I am going to get another 7.62*39 in different furniture.

How do you like the 5.56? Are there a lot of parts besides the barrel itself that aren't common to the M43 variant?
