So I picked up a Venture because I just liked the camo. This gun is smooth and shoots way better than the one MOA claim. Problem is the 3 round magazine capacity. The main purpose of this rifle is another prairie dog gun and I like to shoot without constantly reloading. I attempted to attach a plastic mini 14 mag to the factory mag and it just didn't work. Ordered a MDT 223 mag from brownells and made it work. The rear tab was cut out of a stripper clip and screwed into the mag. The front I first tried to make a springy type release but it didn't work. Ended up just putting a screw in to rest on the shelf where the factory tab rests. I had to move the screw lower after the initial position didn't work. I filed the screw down to fit in the shelf. I also had to sand some material off the lips to allow for smooth bolt operation. Just throwing this out there to all the tinkerers.
Forgot to add the MDT mag was wider than the factory and I had to dremel out the rear half of the magwell some.
