Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Gunsmithing BDL to ADL question

Got bored last night and decided to change a 700 BDL over to ADL so I can drop it in a Ti take-off stock. Came up short on spare parts, question is will I run into any problems using the spring and follower from the BDL floorplate in the ADL? Looked it over and don't see why it won't work. Will probably glue the BDL magazine box to ADL receiver with silicone.

I don't want to buy any more spare parts, trying to get out on the cheap..

Thanks

The spring and follower will work but you will probably want to get an ADL mag. To early and my coffee hasnt kicked in yet but one mag is longer than the other and I think the BDL is the short one so the follower spring will slip under the mag and cause it to bind up.

Yea, I saw the mag height difference but was wondering if in the real world it actually caused any problems. I'm trying to not over analyze this like I usually do and just go shoot it....

Thanks
