Magwells & Baseplates

The ANVL pistol magwells and pistol magazine baseplates are constructed of 6061 aluminum with a level III mil-spec hard coat anodizing. Level III hard coat anodizing is essential for military-grade aluminum goods due to its exceptional durability and protective properties. This electrochemical process enhances the aluminum’s surface hardness and corrosion resistance, making it capable of withstanding harsh environments, heavy wear, and tear. In military applications, where equipment is often subjected to extreme conditions, abrasion, and impacts, this added layer of protection is crucial for maintaining functionality and longevity. Level III anodizing also provides a non-reflective matte finish, which is desirable for minimizing visibility and reducing glare in tactical situations. The enhanced durability and corrosion resistance offered by this process ensure that military-grade aluminum goods remain reliable and operational even under the most demanding circumstances.
