Worked on the Gen II TCM-AR Mag Adapters while up at the main shop and tested them yesterday with great success. I burned through all my TCM ammo while making adjustments to the new adapters.
New adapters take stock TCM mags and fit std AR magwells. They are very similar to the glock mag adapters that you see out there and I am sure you could modify one of those for the TCM mags (minus the bolt catch).
I'll get some pics up when I can and get order details together.

Fabbed up some new latches for the TCM-AR adapters and updating drawings. Adapters are ready to go to machine shop!

Here is our working pre-production 22 TCM-AR magazine adapter! We've looked at a couple different mag catch systems and this is the easiest one to make right now. You can reach it with the trigger finger. Depending on you magwell, the stock TCM mag might be a tight fit. You can squeeze the mag a wee bit in a vise or open up the magwell a bit if yours is too tight. More details on www.thearguy.com website

More testing with the new mag adapters this weekend and adapters work pretty good. Need to get some latches laser cut and make one more adjustment on the bodies. Then find time to machine some....

Hey All, Merry Christmas!
Got some material ordered and will try and knock out some adapter bodies while I'm up at the main shop for the Christmas Holiday. Been a rough two months up here on equipment with two of our "old reliables" going down. I'll take a quick look and see if its something I can fix, but these 30+ year old controls.....

Working on a small batch of TCM-AR adapters and have the main machining done on the bodies. Don't know if I can finish them off up here or will have to send them down to remote location for completion.
Happy New Year

Got the small batch of bodies done and made some new latch system with a mag stop to keep things from over-inserting. New latch is much more robust on the system.

Adapters are available and work well. Need to "glock cut" the bcg to fit the single feed mag lips. Some TCM mags are very tight in magwells and need to be squeezed in a vise to thin them up a bit.
