Saw this video which has a bullet button installed in the magazine:
This is a bullet button tool from (when in stock) www.ubbt.net
NOTE: I inserted this video because solely to show the device. As for the guy, I think he's played a little too much Call of Duty
Watch from 1:00 to 1:33
So i looked up the price for the items:
$9.99 for a 3-pk.
$29.99 to $39.99 EACH.
I'm not the type thats hung up on cosmetics as much as functionality. I think the ability of having a BB on the mag serves well in the sense that you can manipulate the BB with a mag instead of having to switch.
I made my own and this is the process I took. The tools I used are:
Hammer
5/32 punch
Electrical Tape
12 Gauge Hull
Standard AR magazine

I punched out the primer of the 12 Gauge hull. This will be used as your BB tool.


I thought about drilling a hole and using some sort of epoxy, however I think electrical tape preserves the overall structure and integrity of the magazine by not making unnecessary holes.

Finally a picture of the item in use. Only pictured the lower, went off on a tangent while cleaning.

Let me know what you think. Obviously if you don't mind utilizing a separate tool (bullethead, etc.) then whatever. I just thought this is a good and pretty much free alternative to the UBBT if anyone has looked into it.
Looking forward to hearing your responses!
