I wouldn't mind  10 round magazine option for the CZ 527 rifles in 7.62X39MM. They would have to extend down fairly far being a single stack magazine. A 3 round magazine for the 7.62X39MM would extend out about 3/8ths of an inch on a 527 rifle. The 3 round magazine for 223 Remington works just fine with modified trigger guard (bottom metal) of course. If you want a semi flush fit magazine for the 7.62X39 you have to settle for a two round mag or do some magazine follower modification.

Yes, the only 10 rounder in existence does stick down a ways indeed, but it also gives a comfortable mag grip, too. Weird looking but perfectly functional. I was never much into flush fit mags, but I understand how people would like the aesthetics.

I would love some .223 10 rd mags for my 527!  I will be using it for coyote hunting and 10 rds is the limit for mags here in CT.

Yes.  I'd love a 10 rounder!  Mostly, I hunt paper.  I'd like to load up 9 rounds to shoot three 3round groups.

With regards to the aesthetics of the three round magazines on the CZ 527 's. In my opinion only, the more compact the 527 the better they look with the 3 round mags. The carbines and full stocks look more natural with the modified trigger gaurd and flush magazines. The American models also look pretty good while the Varmint models look less so. I personally don't normally use a sling unless there is a good reason to. The 3 round flush fit magazines come into there own if you hand carry. The magazine location being the natural carry point. That said a 10 round capacity option on a rifle like the 527M rifles in 223 Remington or 7.62X39MM also have there merits even if they extend more than a little.

I'm very happy with the stock 5 round mag. I was never a fan of larger mags hanging down. Even in my AR15 I only use a 10 round mag. It's just me and most likely I'm in the minority.

I use my 7.62x39 mostly for stalking type hunts, anything longer than the 5 round mag would just get caught on brush and trees. I normally carry the carbine with one hand wrapped around the magazine when moving through heavy cover.

I've often thought about getting the action and some mags modified to carry 2 or 3 rounds and fit close to flush. I very rarely take more than 2 shots at any given time on a game or pest animal.

I've done a number of three round conversions to my 527s. The only two that I have not modified are my 527M in 7.62X39MM and my 6.5 Grendel American. I just haven't convinced myself that a two round magazine is what I need. Heck I've even done two ten round to four round conversion for the CZ 452 Americans in 17 HMR and 22 WMR so the magazines fit more like the five round mags in a 455. I'm aware most people would prefer the ten round magazine though.

Yeah, a 10 rounder would be nice. But in a single stack configuration, wouldn't you think that would be ridiculously long?

My solution is to chamber a round, then add a round to the mag. Six is better than 5.

I was about to ask the question ... but based on what I've read here, it doesn't look like CZ produced a 10-round mag for the 527.

No aftermarket vendor making them ? really ?

I got a 10-round mag for my 452 ... so i was thinking i could get one for the 527
