I swear it comes up once a month. I have no problem with Pmags going in or dropping free. Never had a feed issue. In my 1 AR. USGI fitting in mag pouches and long term storage may make me pick some up though. I have just never been the type to buy tons of types of anything if I know something that works for me. I found the guitar strings I like I just buy them, etc, etc. But I do realize that improvements get made and that there may be things out there that I would like better and just haven't tried yet.
I will pick up a couple of Okay and see how I like them. Both work, just your preference. Just pick up a few 20rds for all purpose. Attached File CD. I don't know why people think aluminum feed lips won't creep. Quoted: Lancer AWM's are another good alternative steel feed lips. Gen 3 Pmags are leaps and bounds stronger than the old gen 1 and even gen 2.
The lack of pigment in albino mags makes the polymer even stronger. True story. I have 2 ar15's, a nodakspud ar18s lower that uses a arb upper, and the original arb polymer lower. The 2 ar15's use all the mags just just fine, but the del-ton lower has a tighter mag well and the 20 round gen 3 pmags are a little sticky in the mag well and do not always drop free when empty. The 18s and b mag well is tight with all the pmags and none of them will drop free when they are empty. The E2 Surefeeds work perfectly on all our rifles, esp.
But there is no way to get these, and my wife prefers her pencil barreled 16" middy gassed 15, so all magazines need to work in all our rifles. Love the Okay Surefeed mags, and Lancer, and Magpul gen 2 and 3 mags. Quoted: Not accusing you of anything but this is a common theme with USGI mags insert whatever brand.
I began to trouble shoot the issue with him over the phone and 1 of the questions I asked him was are you sure there are 30 rds in the magazine to which he relied that he was sure of it.
Problem solved. USGI mags should lock on a closed bolt. The internet tends to over dramatize things and there are a lot of "If you don't have brand XYZ mags your rifle won't function! View Quote View All Quotes. Quoted: Holy shit dude, I think this entire site knows the hardon you have for Okay mags.
It's not like we have a choice but to know your opinion. I hope someday soon they make a fleshlight so you can satisfy that love for them. Give it a rest already. Since we are comparing Magpul to USGI, does anyone know the exact statistics on the difference in reliability between the mags; the times the military did the testing?
This is impossible with aluminum magazines and requires removing the magazine from the weapon and judging by weight to determine remaining ammunition available. The aluminum magazine design does not allow much compression when fully loaded and will often result in a magazine not being fully seated in the weapon and the magazine falling out while moving or after firing the first round. The PMAG allows compression when fully loaded with 30 rounds and easy seating of the magazine with the bolt carrier forward, reducing the likelihood of the magazine not being fully seated.
The M SAW has a provision to take magazines instead of belts in an emergency, allowing members of the squad to supply ammunition for suppressive fire. Aluminum magazines are notorious for causing malfunctions when used in the M With aluminum magazines and the greater potential for misalignment of the cartridge to the chamber, this practice often leads to a malfunction.
It was nice to see Ruger provide a real magazine, and they definitely deserves a […]. You must be logged in to post a comment. This site uses Akismet to reduce spam.

So statistically speaking, there is no real world reliability difference between the two of them.
The PMAG allows compression when fully loaded with 30 rounds and easy seating of the magazine with the bolt carrier forward, reducing the likelihood of the magazine not being fully seated. Lancer Hybrid mags tend to be like this where they only feed certain calibers and rounds reliably from my experience. So far though the SureFeed E2 magazines have done a great job feeding and working with multiple calibers.
The black and medium coyote tan are now the only magazines authorized by the USMC for combat and training. AK and AR magazines work correctly right out of the wrapper, and unlike surplus, they're in good supply and new condition. It doesn't hurt that the prices are fair. There's no surprises when you get something from MagPul. Magpul is successful because they are recognized as the purveyers of quality gear that is also a great value. More importantly is what they don't sell--they usually don't offer kit with poor utility or usefulness.
Rarely do users complain that they bought stuff that isn't purposeful. They also don't overreach and start offering gear outside of their expertise. I'd be concerned if they started selling complete rifles or uppers since their expertise is in polymer. They are, however, diluting their brand by offering Branded airsoft gear that closely resembles the real stuff and is frequently sold on eBay.
Magpul products work very well. Short of being shot, blown up, or the spring wearing out from some pretty hardcore and extended use, they just don't quit. Kinda like an old Toyota Pickup The polymer is made well, and is durable in both the extreme hot, and extreme cold where some magazine feed lips break off. They can be run over and throw around, and used to hammer things, and very typically, they don't break. And, they use the no tilt followers, and they don't tilt.
One thing I like about polymer mags, is that you can stipple them They work just fine on a square range when your life doesn't depend on them. But they can get crushed, they get loose and rickety and fall apart, the followers like to tilt, and the springs are garbage.
