This upgrade is primarily suited for target shooters and varmint hunters who require faster reloads and enhanced magazine handling. The system replaces the factory hinged floorplate and trigger guard assembly with a polymer trigger guard and magazine release, allowing use of ATI’s proprietary detachable magazines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Overview\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConstructed from durable polymer, the ATI Detachable Magazine Conversion provides a robust and corrosion-resistant bottom metal assembly engineered for reliable field performance. It installs directly on most synthetic stocks without modification, while wood stocks may need minor fitting to ensure proper alignment. The conversion includes a magazine release mechanism compatible with ATI’s 5- and 10-round detachable magazines, enabling quicker reloads compared to the factory fixed internal magazine. This system enhances operational efficiency in precision shooting and varmint hunting scenarios where rapid magazine changes are beneficial.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"border-collapse: collapse; width: 100%; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: #333; border: 1px solid #ddd; margin: 15px 0;\" border=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f8f9fa; border-bottom: 2px solid #ddd;\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left; padding: 12px; font-weight: bold; border-right: 1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eFeature\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left; padding: 12px; font-weight: bold;\"\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; border-right: 1px solid #eee; background-color: #fafafa; font-weight: 500;\"\u003eManufacturer\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px;\"\u003eATI\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; border-right: 1px solid #eee; background-color: #fafafa; font-weight: 500;\"\u003eModel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px;\"\u003eATI Detachable Magazine Conversion for Howa Short\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; border-right: 1px solid #eee; background-color: #fafafa; font-weight: 500;\"\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px;\"\u003eHowa M1500 and Weatherby Vanguard Short Action Rifles\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; border-right: 1px solid #eee; background-color: #fafafa; font-weight: 500;\"\u003eMagazine Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px;\"\u003eDetachable Box Magazine (Polymer)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; border-right: 1px solid #eee; background-color: #fafafa; font-weight: 500;\"\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px;\"\u003eDurable Polymer\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; border-right: 1px solid #eee; background-color: #fafafa; font-weight: 500;\"\u003eInstallation\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px;\"\u003eNo modification required for synthetic stocks; wood stocks may require fitting\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; border-right: 1px solid #eee; background-color: #fafafa; font-weight: 500;\"\u003eFunction\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px;\"\u003eReplaces factory hinged floorplate and trigger guard assembly\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; border-right: 1px solid #eee; background-color: #fafafa; font-weight: 500;\"\u003eUse Case\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px;\"\u003eTarget shooting, varmint hunting\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px; border-right: 1px solid #eee; background-color: #fafafa; font-weight: 500;\"\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px;\"\u003eLightweight polymer construction\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFurther Product Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe conversion kit includes the polymer trigger guard and bottom metal assembly but does not include magazines, which must be purchased separately. Installation is straightforward on synthetic stocks, requiring no permanent alterations, while wood stocks may need minor gunsmithing to ensure a proper fit. This upgrade facilitates faster reloads by allowing the use of detachable magazines instead of manually loading rounds into a fixed internal magazine, improving efficiency during shooting sessions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMaintenance involves periodic cleaning of the magazine well and release mechanism to prevent malfunctions caused by dirt or moisture. The polymer construction resists corrosion and reduces overall weight compared to metal components. Users should verify compliance with local firearm regulations regarding detachable magazine conversions, as some jurisdictions may impose restrictions. ATI provides limited warranty coverage on this product, and adherence to the manufacturer’s installation and care instructions is recommended to maintain reliable function.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ATI","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68107732910309,"sku":"CDX-ATI-HS-CON","price":1247.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0736\/0010\/6725\/files\/ati-detachable-magazine-conversion-for-howa-short-1.jpg?v=1794470891","url":"https:\/\/guardsondutyshop.co.za\/products\/ati-detachable-magazine-conversion-for-howa-short","provider":"Guards On Duty Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
