American Rifle Magazines makes replacement rifle magazines for Marlin rimfire rifles and the Remington 783 — built and shipped from our own shop in Naugatuck, Connecticut. We are not an importer and we are not a reseller of overseas parts. Every magazine we sell is manufactured in the United States, from US steel and US-made components, by the same family-owned company that answers your emails and phone calls.
If your rifle's magazine is lost, worn out, or you just want a spare, buying direct from the manufacturer means you get the part built to the correct pattern — not a guess from a marketplace listing with no idea who actually made it.
Who we build for
Our customers are rifle owners replacing a lost or worn magazine, gunsmiths sourcing parts for a customer's rifle, and gun shops, ranges, and FFL dealers who stock magazines for resale. Whichever one you are, you're buying from the shop that machines the part, not a middleman.
What we make
We specialize in two families of rifles:
- Marlin rimfire rifles — .22 LR, .22 WMR, and .17 HMR magazines for the classic Marlin bolt-action and semi-auto .22 rifles, including the 780, 25, 20, 80, 795, 70PSS, 995SS, 922M, and the 556-XT series.
- Remington 783 centerfire rifles — short-action, long-action, and magnum long-action magazines across the 783's common calibers, plus our extended-capacity 783 XT.
If you own one of these rifles, the odds are good we make the magazine that fits it. Confirm your exact model with the Marlin fitment guide or the Remington 783 fitment guide before you order — and if your rifle is stamped Glenfield, JC Higgins, or Western Auto instead of Marlin, start with our store-brand fitment guide instead.
Made in the U.S.A. — not a marketing line
We build our magazines in America using US steel and US components. That single decision drives everything else: correct feed-lip geometry, proper spring pressure, and finishes — black oxide and nickel — that hold up in the field and at the range. American manufacturing isn't a tagline for us. It's how we keep quality in our own hands instead of hoping an overseas factory got it right.
Family-owned and owner-operated
American Rifle Magazines was founded by Rob Haversat and remains family-owned and owner-operated. We run as a small operation based in Naugatuck, Connecticut — close enough to the shop floor that the person answering your question is the same person who stands behind the product. That's deliberate. It's how a magazine gets built correctly, and how you get taken care of if something isn't right.
Why the details matter
A rifle magazine is a small part with an outsized job. Feed-lip geometry, spring tension, and fitment decide whether your next round chambers cleanly or not. Buying American-made means you get a part built to the correct pattern, backed by a company you can actually reach — not a mystery SKU shipped from halfway around the world. It also means your money supports American steel, American components, and American jobs.
Rimfire and centerfire — two different jobs
Marlin rimfire magazines and Remington 783 centerfire magazines aren't interchangeable in any direction, and we don't blur that line. Our Marlin .22 LR magazines are built for the .22 LR rifles listed in the fitment guide, and our .22 WMR/.17 HMR magnum magazines are a different body entirely, built for the magnum rimfire models. A .22 LR magazine will not run in a .22 WMR or .17 HMR rifle, and a magnum magazine will not run in a .22 LR rifle. On the centerfire side, the Remington 783's short-action, long-action, and magnum long-action magazines are three different parts sized for three different bolt throws. Getting this right the first time is the whole point of buying from the people who build the part.
How we think about quality
We don't outsource tooling and we don't outsource quality control. When a magazine ships from our Naugatuck shop, it was cut, finished, and inspected by the same operation that stands behind it if something's wrong. That's a different model than a marketplace listing that changes suppliers every few months — with us, the specs on the page match the part in the box because we're the ones who made both.
Before you order
A few things worth knowing before you buy:
- Confirm your model number. On Marlin rifles it's stamped on the left side of the barrel, usually just ahead of the receiver. Match it against the Marlin or Remington 783 fitment guide before you buy.
- Magazine capacity laws vary by state. We don't ship high-capacity magazines to states where they're restricted — check the magazine capacity laws by state guide first.
- Buying in quantity? Gun shops, ranges, gunsmiths, and FFL dealers can open a wholesale account — see wholesale purchasing.
