Title: When you can't afford to buy PMAGs, but want it to look like you can.
Post by: Big Frank on March 22, 2023, 07:10:43 AM

These are for anyone who can't afford to buy real PMAGs, but wants it to look like they can. There are a bunch of Chinese companies selling these "Mag Assist Magazine Protector Rubber Holster Magazine Rubber Pouch Grip Sleeves" and such. It might help absorb the impact if you drop your mag. One guy said that's why he uses them on his plastic Airsoft mags. If they weren't stealing money out of Magpul's pocket, I'd get one just as a joke... "Hey guys, I finally switched to PMAGs. Psych!" I can imagine the reaction my friends would have when I ejected a G.I. mag wearing a rubber. ;D

Most of them say PMAG right on them, but some left the name off. They're only ripping off Magpul 99% with their product. And someone decided to make a different style. I don't know if they copied an actual magazine design or not. It may look like an AMMEND2 or some other non-PMAG magazine, but I didn't recognize it off hand or try to figure it out. If it's not G.I. or Magpul, I don't know what it is, and I never owned a Magpul magazine.
