Abstract A cartridge magazine for storing cartridges is provided that can be used with a plurality of styles of firearms, and particularly for use with the Colt M16/AR-15 and the Ruger Mini-14/AC 556 styles of firearms. The cartridge magazine includes a number of different latch- related elements for use in engaging different cartridge magazine latching mechanisms found on each of the styles of firearm. The width and thickness dimensions of the magazine are such that insertion into each of the fire- arms can be accomplished without binding. A magazine follower is also provided with different bolt hold open engaging elements on the same follower in order to accommodate the different styles of firearms. A stop member is included on the magazine to prevent excessive insertion of the magazine relative to one of the fire- arms. A positioning member located on the magazine assists alignment of the cartridges during loading thereof into the firearm so that jamming of the cart- ridges is eliminated. The magazine also has a spring attached to the follower in which portions of the spring define predetermined angular relationships to further facilitate receipt of a cartridge by the selected fire- arm.
