[QUOTE="sable tireur, post: 1494546, member: 27307"] Just to keep the terminology clear, this picture from Stocky's shows what is generally referred to as BDL bottom metal or trigger guard assemblies. These BDL assemblies have a hinged floor plate only and require the addition of the internal magazine box, follower and follower spring to function. There is no detachable box magazine involved with this design. The weight added by using BDL aluminum assemblies is a mere couple of ounces. Now if you choose the Tactical version in steel then the weight increases.

But basically any DBM system labeled as 'M5' will have the same inlet shape and size. [/QUOTE]
