Magpul Pmag (30 rounds)

[Trevor]

What are your opinions of the Magpul Pmag AR-15 magazines?

[Bidah]

I do not have an opinion, yet.  I am thinking about getting one and testing it here in the cold to see how it holds up to 30 below.  I have not seen a test like that done yet, or even a comment about it.

I have a few and will buy more.  I like then alot and have not had any problems with them at all.

From my experience the quality of the PMags is excellent.

I took a carbine class where one shooter used nothing but Pmags, shot 1000 rounds in three days and had zero malfunctions or problems.

I got a couple and plan to use them (along with my usual Brownell's 30-rounders) when I go to Tulsa next month!

They initially had some quality control issues, but MagPul's customer service has been second to none and as far as I know, all have been replaced at no expense to the customers.  I've got several of the newest generation and so far they have worked out quite well, but they are prone to cracking if dropped fully loaded, with the feed lips impacting on a hard surface (concrete.)  I have not broken any myself, but a friend of mine has broken 4 that way (Then again he could break a steel ball bearing) so YMMV.

I tested a couple out during the filming of the video's that are posted on the forum and they worked flawlessly.  I especially like the ease of disassembly/reassembly for cleaning.

Outstanding product for the price.  I will continue to stock up on them from time to time.

Thanks for the heads up on the issue you had Erik. I haven't been on any ranges where the Pmags have been dumped on concrete. Of course,with the aluminum ones the feed lips can be bent up by dropping them on the ground with a load as well.

I think you just need to get use to the idea that magazines are a consumable item and need to be replaced from time to time. 

For what it's worth, the same class the Pmags were at, one of the shooters ruined an AK mag by dropping a partially loaded one on top of it while it was on the ground and put a big dent in the side.

Just to be clear, I didn't have any issues.  The ones I have are working perfectly.

Don't want to get a call from MagPul wanting to know what torture tests I performed on their magazines and get them all pissed off (Don't wanna lose my place in line for the Masada! )

Now you know how I feel after waiting almost 8 months for my Sig 556. The dealer is saying it should show up any day now!

I hope you getting a real good price on it for that kind of a wait.

I've seen several in my local gun shops and on the gun show circuit.
