      Give seven mags to a grunt and put them in a battle vest and take it into a cold weather tent that is heated. Take a 1/2 patrol in minus 15 degrees fully loaded. Take a standing defensive position against a tree with rocks below your weapon and fire it transitioning to all magazines in your battle vest that were in the cold before the fire sequence. Will those magazines survive the drop? I will buy the Pmags from my own pocket and let you know.

    Love my Gen M3 Pmags. They're pricey, but it's what I keep my SHTF armor piercing rounds in, so it's one less thing to worry about. As for the bulk of my mags, though, I run the Gen M2 MOE, because they're only $9/each at my local gun shop. Made it a point to buy one mag every time I visit as a way to support my local store which has been good to me. Also means I'm sitting on quite a lot of unopened 30 round mags. Would be fairly valuable as a trade item in a post-SHTF society, I'd think. And if anything, I would be set on mags for decades. Super light weight, too.

    I have both Gen-2 and Gen-3 Pmags, honestly they both fit and feed great for me. I don't particularly care for the round-count windows on the Gen-3's, but that's just my personal opinion. I own 20, 30, and 40-rd Pmags, and one thing I do not understand is why the MSRP on the 20-rd mags is higher than the 30's... maybe because the 30's are obviously most popular and so effectively mass-produced, but who knows. Anyway, I think they are still a go-to mag for affordability and confidence in quality control when you buy one.

Then I had to put glue inside the hole to prevent it in the future. But if it didn’t have that issue that I fixed it would have an A+ rating by me and as long as it has 556 ammo it is amazingly reliable. If you put 223 ammo in it then it jams unfortunately. But, again. Now my 60 rounds is completely reliable. Great for a prone position.

      M2s are worse than M3s. M2's will split overtime if left at max capacity in storage where as M3's will not due to the larger surface area bonded together in the M3's polymer halves.
      Nothing of the M3 is "devolved" if anything magpul needs to stop selling those cheaper gen 2s and lower the gen3s like a proconsumer company would.

    • @WitchyWagonReal
      @WitchyWagonReal 4 года назад +1

      They work reliably... but they haven't been as thoroughly tested as the 556 PMAGs. For example... if you use a GL9 magazine in a Kel-Tec Sub2000, the outer feedlips come in contact with the edge of the steel tubing cutout... and even with relatively light fire, the steel will start melting its way into the GL9 mag (right side). Eventually this causes a weakened feed lip, and the loaded pressure of rounds is pushing against an up to 3/4" long, 1mm wide melted groove. This could be a one-gun fluke... but I tend to think that the design needs more development to be perfect. I do like how the larger 20+ magazines have a flat bottom-- you can count on Magpul to give effort and detail, for sure... and value.

    • @tonynorris1506

      Any updates on the GL version?
      I've heard they did revisions, and they are half the price of OEM, but due to original issues, I've always strayed.
      Seems I heard the original ones had an issue with the angle of the top round. Also heard it was revised.
      One thing about Magpul, even when there's not an issue, there constantly revising products.
      Such as the follower on the new M3s for AR, they used to slip right past some people bolt catches, but they put extra tabs to keep the follower from sliding forward and NOW the rear of Pmags have a semi- hexigon shape, rather than a horizontal rear.
      Now, the people with that issue have it with the New M2s being they use what M3s formerly used, yet the older M2s don't pose that issue with those who have stacking tolerance issues in their bolt catch area.

    I have 5 pmag m3's I've fired about 3,000 - 4,000 rounds from them combined and not a single issue. Never had a malfunction. I used 2 mags one day and fired 1,000 rounds that day and not a single issue. I'm using an m&p sport 2 btw. That and the m3 combo, I've never had a malfunction. The pmag m2 that came with the gun would feed rounds in really badly. The rounds would go in at a weird angle and it would actually bend the neck of the casing and the bullet would be coming off the casing at an angle, causing the rifle to not go into battery about every 10 rounds or so. Since I got m3's I've had no issue. I use both the windowed mags and the normal ones.

    My only beef with PMAG's is when you leave them fully loaded for extended periods. The feed lips bow out and it becomes much harder to seat the magazine and prevents it from dropping free when empty. If you keep magazines fully loaded for SHTF situations, best to stick with steel or aluminum mags to be safe.

    I took 10 BRAND NEW Pmags to a tactical rifle course, those mags got used and abused... most of the course they were getting dropped on concrete and pebble ground. I came home with 7 working Pmags two of witch failed not soon after all of them failing due to the feed lips breaking. I have since switched to Lancer mags, not one problem and I have more rounds down range though lancers then I have had through any of my Pmags. I have also returned to take the more advanced tactical rifle course at the same location with Lancer mags... not one failed. The course even has a warring now on the paperwork when you sign up that they have had issues with Pmags (as well as a few others) breaking during the range sessions and do not suggest them.

      Lancer also has translucent ones those are really nice for checking in shitty visibility compared to a window on the pmag how many you uave left and as well with feeling the weight it gives you a pretty good estimate

    I have some 40 round Pmags that I keep loaded with 30 rounds in them all the time. But in a SHTF or WROL situation, they will be fully loaded. The reason why I keep 30 rounds in them all the time is because I think there will be less pressure on the feed lips which will keep the feed lips from spreading. Of course, this is just a personal preference. With crime on the rise, because the jails are letting inmates out due to the pandemic, I want to be ready just in case something bad happens. I have several 40 round Pmags loaded with 30 rounds, and they are ready at a moment’s notice to be used. One of them is already in my rifle and the others are very close to my rifle. Magazines and ammunition are the same in one sense. You can never have too many or too much of either.

    • @earl240sx
      @earl240sx 3 года назад

      The only difference I know of from experience, is they apparently made the gen 3 mags slightly smaller externally, I assume so that they will fit & drop properly from a wider variety of lowers. I have a couple of the gen 2 mags, and they fit fine in two of my ARs (both are PSA lowers), but fit tightly and will not drop on their own from two others (one Eagle Arms, and one older (1980s) Pac West Arms lower). I also have a dozen or more gen 3 mags in 10, 20, and 30 round sizes, and they all fit and drop freely from all my guns. For what it's worth, the gen 2s function perfectly in all the guns otherwise. So if your mags work in your ARs, I see no reason to change. Also, lots of dealers are selling the gen 2 mags at a discount now. Also for what it's worth, I also have a half dozen of the Brownells 30-rnd aluminum mags, and those fit and function perfectly in all my ARs too.

I see the gen 3s around, but for a few bucks more. I'm just wondering if it's worth the extra money. Every three or four gen 3s, I would be able to have bought an extra mag if I bought gen 2s.

      Sounds like your mag release may be wound too tight on it's spring. There's kind of a Goldilocks zone between too tight (won't release) and too loose (won't retain). Remove the mag, and push the mag release button far enough in until the mag catch body is away from the lower receiver far enough to get a counterclockwise turn on it. Replace the magazine and test. Repeat as necessary.

I removed some material and I think its going to cycle now but the feed lips are tapered is that by design? The front portion of the lips being much thinner than the rear I mean? If it helps the rifle does function on c products mags but the round sit much higher in that mag due to the lips being thin sheetmetal.
