Difficulty & Build Time

  • Skill Level: Intermediate
  • Estimated Build Time: 1-2 days per magazine, depending on printer setup and post-processing
  • Required Experience: Familiarity with 3D printing, firearm assembly, and basic troubleshooting of printed parts

Hardware and Tools Required

Required Hardware

  • 3D printed magazine components (from provided STL files)
  • Compatible firearm for testing fit and function (AR15, AR10, AK, Glock, or CETME C)
  • Standard magazine springs and followers (specific to firearm model)
  • Fasteners or adhesives as outlined in the build manual

Recommended Tools

  • 3D printer with suitable build volume
  • Calipers for precise measurements
  • Sandpaper or files for post-processing
  • Drill or Dremel for minor adjustments
  • Assembly tools specific to firearm type (e.g., punch tools for pins)

The Wafflemag Megapack (AR15, AR10, AK, Glock, CETME C) Parts

This megapack includes a collection of STL files for crafting magazines tailored to AR15, AR10, AK, Glock, and CETME C platforms. Each design has been meticulously tested for fit and function, with detailed build instructions available in the accompanying Waffle Magazine 2.0 Manual.pdf. For optimal results, print with high infill (50-80%) to ensure structural integrity under load.

We recommend using durable materials like PETG or ABS to withstand the mechanical stress of firearm use. Pay attention to layer adhesion and avoid warping by maintaining a stable print environment. Special considerations include printing baseplates and adapters (like the CETME adapter) with precision to ensure seamless integration with your firearm.

Printer Compatibility & Settings

The Wafflemag Megapack is compatible with most FDM 3D printers capable of handling medium to large build volumes, such as Ender 3, Prusa i3, or similar models. For materials, PETG or ABS are highly recommended due to their strength and heat resistance, though advanced users may experiment with nylon for added durability. Avoid PLA as it lacks the necessary toughness for functional firearm components.

Suggested print settings include a layer height of 0.2-0.3mm, infill of 50-80%, and a heated bed to prevent warping. Ensure proper cooling for overhangs, especially on intricate parts like magazine lips. Always test-fit printed components before full assembly to confirm dimensional accuracy.

Conclusion

The Wafflemag Megapack (AR15, AR10, AK, Glock, CETME C) is an essential resource for 3D printing and firearms enthusiasts looking to customize and innovate. With its community-backed design, versatile compatibility, and detailed build guidance, it offers a rewarding project for intermediate builders.
