Our Satisfied Customers Say it All!

“I originally purchased the Patriot Mag Release because of the cheaper price. But as they say, you get what you pay for.
After several days of fitting and filing to get it to work with the different magazines that I have, I finally glued the adjustment screw, per instructions, and hammered in the plug and waited for the glue to set. After doing so I separated the upper and lower only to find that the small hex adjustment screw was now dragging on the upper. I adjusted it in, and in, and in, and in until it bottomed out but it still caught on the upper and would not allow it to close. I removed the screw so I could close the receivers, but then the magazine would drop if pushed. I cut, filed, and adjusted the screw until I was finally able to get it work as it should. But, once I tried it with a different magazine it would not function. So I had only one magazine that I could use. At this point I was done.
I went to my local gun store and picked up an AR MAGLOCK. However, before I could install it I had to drill out, yes drill, the magazine catch thus destroying it. Unlike that Patriot Mag Release, the AR MAGLOCK installed quickly, easily, and required absolutely zero adjustments. It works with all my magazines. I am able to swap out upper receivers without any troubles and in case of a malfunction, it is easily disabled with just a hex key.
Wish I would have purchased it first and saved myself the money and a lot of frustration. Thanks for such a well thought out product!”

Here my AR 15s I built from scratch. When it came time to put on a California compliant magazine lock I researched for days looking for both ease of use ease of installation and proper function.
AR MAGLOCK Won hands down !

They work as they should.
AR MAGLOCK is the best solution I found so I don’t have to worry about my gun being illegal.
These can save an accidental felony and confusion with police if the issue ever comes up. It happened to me and it can happen to anyone. I had a bitchin’ rifle confiscated from me because of my standard mag catch.

My AR 15 and my AR 10 build. AR MAGLOCK’s installed. Only way to keep it “CA legal”.

AR MAGLOCK with my first AR build which I literally just finished yesterday. Wish I had a pick tool for that detent though haha I had to get creative and used the tip of a coat hanger


Being a New York State resident and having the new SAFE act, we are very limited on firearm features. The AR MAGLOCK allowed me to stay compliant with state laws as well as keep all of my features such as a pistol grip and muzzle break, all while still having the ability to remove the magazine for maintenance and cleaning or in the case of a jam. I will install one on every AR platform I own from now on and long as I live in this state. Thank you AR MAGLOCK.

AR MAGLOCK is the best solution to keep all your other features and most importantly, stay compliant with California laws. Thanks so much. Here is my 308 build and the AR15 is coming soon. TY!

I’ve avoided purchasing an AR for a long time with the horrible NY laws. I couldn’t stomach shooting a featureless AR15. When I looked in other options and found out about the AR MAGLOCK I knew this was going to be great. I’m 4 builds in and every AR of mine uses the AR MAGLOCK. I couldn’t be more happy and get compliments at the range every time I go.

AR MAG LOCK: ![]()
Looks better than the rest of the “options” to stay unregistered.
Also… Went on super easy!
NO SKILL REQUIRED to install! And I’m basically the “call of duty Internet guy” that other people make fun of for playing COD AND DRESSING LIKE IT!!!!
Amazing product! Not adjusted needed installation. I’ve unfortunately had the experience of installing/purchasing an inferior product that is loose and can scratch the upper receiver; and with a tube of super glue as a improvised fix.
The AR MAGLOCK is far superior to its competitors. I would highly recommend this product.

First off, I’m pleased to hear about the AR MAGLOCK pleasing the kings in California for the registry. Second, I can’t say enough about it. Took me about three to four mag changes to get it down, but, now it’s like second nature. I don’t have them on all of my
Absolutely LOVE the AR MAGLOCK. Installed it on my JL Billet AR-10 / .308 and it works perfectly.
I did a LOT of research on all the different options to stay compliant. Didn’t want to go featureless as that’s gay, and all of the other products on the market are inferior to the AR MAGLOCK. I actually purchased and tried competing products and none of them are as nice as this solution.
Once you get used to the AR MAGLOCK it’s actually faster than the bullet button.

AR MAGLOCK is by far the best fixed magazine solution on the market. I looked at all of the other products available and did MANY hours of reading customer reviews. Everyone agrees, AR MAGLOCK is the only way to go and don’t even waster your money on the others.


AR MAGLOCK was easy to install, and combined with the Patriot-Pin, I now have a California compliant rifle that is no longer an assault weapon.
I’ve had no issues with clearing a double feed, and changing out magazines is very quick and simple.
Great product overall.

The AR MAGLOCK is awesome.
My first time at the range with it installed, my rifle functioned flawlessly.
The AR MAGLOCK is faster than the bullet button and no tools are needed to operate it!

Love my AR MAGLOCK. Works on all my lower receivers. Great customer service as well. Since I had an early one. They worked out all the bugs and its been trooping on ever since. Three years now. Wow.

AR MAGLOCK with my first AR build which I literally just finished yesterday. Wish I had a pick tool for that detent though haha I had to get creative and used the tip of a coat hanger

After several visits to the range the AR MAGLOCK works exactly as described! Once you get familiar with using it it’s really not that bad at all, Reasonably priced and it’s way better than Registering it as an assault weapon

I Built This AR10 Mostly for Hunting Deer and Once a Year Pig Hunt. I Used The AR MAGLOCK With The 308 Lower Kit, Fits Perfect and Works Great. With a 20″ Stainless Steel Barrel, It Has a Nikon 4×12 308 Scope, Nikon Scope Mount, A2 Stock, and 5 Round Mag. To Keep It Ca. Legal In The Field. The Caliber of Choice Is 7mm-08, Just Cause I Could. Weight, 10.5 lbs.
First AR15 I built. The wife liked it so much she had me skin it with muddy girl. And yes I live in commifornia. But before anyone asks, that is a 10 round mag. Both she and I love the ar maglock. Makes it legal and we can still change mags quickly

I love it, NO REGISTRATION for me!! its not that bad once you get used to the process, NEED a couple more though!!!
I live in upstate NY. Installed in minutes and I get to keep all the “scary features” on my rifle no thanks to the “safe act”. Thanks to AR MAGLOCK! thank you!

Modified my AR MAGLOCK for my side charging billet upper 24″.
My A1 Clone, utilizing original era proper furniture. Thank you AR MAGLOCK for allowing me to retain the look and feel.

Having an AR Pistol leaves me no other choice but to go the fix magazine route. Having viewed other products, I tried to look for the ease of installation.. no drilling, no hammers.. so I ended up buying the AR MAGLOCK. I wasn’t disappointed as the installation probably took less than 10 minutes… I was satisfied that I bought 3 of these for my rifles and future builds.
The AR MAGLOCK is the best option I’ve found when trying to avoid registration. Quick to install and easy to use. If going featureless is not an option for you, the AR MAGLOCK is the only way to go!

Living in California is trouble when owning an AR15. All the rules and regulations that are constantly being introduced and forced upon law abiding citizens are themselves unjust and not really effective at doing what politicians say they are supposed to do.
Registering my AR and/or completely butchering it to comply is not something I wanted to do. I spent a lot of time learning about the rifle, about every component, building the whole thing part by part over a 9 month period until I was happy with it. Then to be told to remove this and that or to register, just annoyed the hell out of me.
That is why I am grateful for companies like AR MAGLOCK who develop simple and easy compromises to comply with the law without having to destroy the look or have to register. Thank you AR MAGLOCK!

I’ve been fed up with New York’s unsafe act. I’ve wanted an AR for years but because of the restrictions my only choices where to go with pump action or featureless (not much point then). But I was browsing YouTube one day and saw the AR MAGLOCK and was surprised. I decided to order parts and build my rifle exactly the way I wanted, full featured, semi auto and LEGAL. I tell everyone I know with a firearm about this product. Mag changes are easy as pie and much better than loading a fixed mag through the upper. Thank you for helping me with being AMERICAN in a commie run state.
