The Lancer L5AWM stands for the “L5 Advanced Warfighter Magazine,” built for AR-15 and M4 rifles in .223 Remington and 5.56x45mm NATO. This 5-round version delivers the same proven hybrid construction as Lancer’s larger-capacity variants, featuring a patented steel/polymer hybrid design with precision-engineered, hardened steel feedlip geometry and an advanced floorplate lock design.
The L5AWM GEN 2 magazine is engineered with a unique hybrid design, featuring a robust polymer body combined with hardened steel feed lips, which ensures lightweight handling and provides enhanced durability. The L5AWM GEN 2 body is molded with proprietary polymers and features aggressive surface texturing that permits improved user purchase, particularly during active engagements and in humid environments. The newly designed GEN 2 feedlips won’t wear, bend, crack, deform, or split under heavy sustained fire, extreme temperature cycling, or extended storage.
The L5AWM GEN 2 magazine has undergone rigorous testing to guarantee optimal performance in extreme temperatures, ensuring reliable feeding in any environment, with an anti-tilt follower supported by a stainless-steel spring that ensures consistent and reliable feeding. The advanced polymers used offer corrosion and chemical resistant qualities, and when put to military chemical testing, the L5 easily passed.
