Ruger Gunsite magazine question

Any Ruger Gunsite Scout shooters or informed folks out there.


The Ruger Gunsight Scout rifle uses a proprietary magazine which I believe is the AICS pattern (?).

My questions are

1. Will AICS factory mags work in the Gunsite rifle? (Specifically for the 5.56)
2. If so, will the Mag Pul AICS mags work in the Gunsight?

Thank you.

I bought two Ruger branded AICS poly mags for the Gunsite. I don’t know if they are a Magpul product or not but I sure like the profile of them. Much shorter but the same capacity as the mag that comes with the rifle. So here I sit with two mags, a scout scope and lots of ammo but no rifle. (It’s on layaway at my LGS and I will be picking it up the first of February) Talk about all dressed up but nowhere to go. :o :lol:

Yeah, dam household budgets sure get in the way. Even worse is I’m the one who pays the bills and calls the shots on budget. My own worst enemy! :lol:

Pretty much the same at my house but when you are retired those budgets just slap that little guy on your shoulder right off onto the floor. Probably wont be anymore guns coming to my house anytime soon but there sure has been alot go up for sale.
