FWIW: The magazines for .450BM (and a couple others) use a special follower AND a conventional follower inside what used to be considered a "20 round" Magazine.
Yep. I read if you file those guides off a basic 5.56/.223 mag, it would work. For me, it did not. It's a deer rifle so I can only have 5 rounds anyway, so I just ordered two of the designated 5 round steel mags which have the proper follower and no guides. I didn't really think filing the little nubby guides off would work, but gave it a shot all the same. The straight wall cartridges have to utilize a different set of parts in the mags to function properly.
Those guides are not in the Feed Lips, they are actually stamped into the side of the magazine body...now if you took a Mill and cut them away leaving slot like windows in the sides, they would likely work.
No mill for me, so it was cheaper to buy the dedicated magazines.
'bless their heart, they tried.

I picked up a Duramag and a CMMG, both 5 rounds. Not 100% positive, but I think they are actually made in the same factory.
Both made by C Products.
I have a Gen 3, it's OK. I never found a Gen 2 locally in a shop. One guy said he had one and wanted to trade for a knife I had, but he bailed on the deal. I planned to drop it on the wifes rifle.
I have several NOS Bushmaster made, blackened stainless, 5 round mags for the .450BM Rifle; these will also fit 458socom and 50 Beowulf...this isn't an ad to sell, only that I could help a brother out with one or two should they be interested.
Screw that mask wearing fag. Kicked me out for not wearing one .
I did find that on the DuraMag 20 round mags, I did have to take the dremel to the front of it. Just a couple of thousandths. It'll just catch the leading edge of the case mouth. Internet suggestions are to also trim back the leading edge of the feed lips, allowing the round to begin to angle into the feed ramp earlier.
Never been there but he does sell the Prince 50 Magazine lock. This subject of mag locks keeps coming up from time to time, but i thought it was settled, the prince 50 is good to go! Simple and easy to install.
I think it keeps coming up because a lot of people don't want to go to prison for something as stupid and unsafe as locking the magazine in place, and there's no 100% approved method aside from gluing the mag into the lower. Even the latter might not be OK, depending on the given day and who is doing the inspecting. I always figured the MA Lock and Cross Armory Mag Lock were the solid choice for those who wanted a little more permanency if some busybody wanted to have a looksy. But since the MA Lock was discontinued due to our AG suing them over the case that made the CCIA happen, it brings back that wondering. The kid that committed that crime bought a rifle with the MA Lock installed from a shop, then removed it. MA may have had a better chance if they hadn't put the instructions on how to reverse the lock right on the back of the packaging, but the case still happened. So, if that's not OK, then the Prince 50 or the SAFE Mod might not be either for reasons we all know. The best we can do, as mentioned, is go with what makes one feel they are complying and hope any LEO and/or judge see it the same way.
Good old jb weld. Dab on the back of the mag catch been keeping the uzi safe from communist NY since the good old Cuomo days.
I like it. Do I need a permit to get one?
I'd have taken off a grip panel, drilled a hole through the receiver and magazine at the ten round limit and popped a rivet in the hole...'course loading it is going to be a pain in the ass, but so is living in NY.
Pain in the ass to load either way. Uzi's are great shooters if running right. If any feed issues ever occur, it's either a top plate adjustment or a magazine height adjustment. Didn't want to drill and rivet a mag. I can take the catch off and either grind epoxy off, or just buy a new one for a few bucks.
Only in the Rotten Apple.
