Good stuff . I'm one who thinks a magazine is worthless if it's not loaded and my Pmags have been loaded for years without the cover on them . They all work fine and no failures with any of them .
The "little thingy that sticks out" you mentioned on the spine of the gen 3 is actually pretty important. It seats the mag correctly in the mag well preventing feeding issues. The gen 1 and 2 do not have that notch.
You forgot to mention that on the Gen 1 and 2 that the dust cover will snap on the bottom of the magazine for storage but on the Gen 3 it will not snap on the bottom
the MOE GEN PMAGs have very little diffrences but the big one is deffinitly the window sizes just picked up a gen2 my self, even the plstic retaining clips don't break in long storage?
You're a good man thanks for the information I was just sorting some of my old Surefire and P mags i had them loaded and stored away since 2008 or so and started numbering them and came across the different Pmags generations and found your video, Thanks.
Date question. My gen 3 has a 7, 23 in a circle and arrow pointing to 8. Now I have had this mag for a long a time so I know it wasn't made in 23 so I would assume it was made 08/2007 so what does the 23 mean?
Non should really be avoided but generally gen 3 is going to be the best. All of mine are gen 2 just because I got a good deal on a bunch of them years ago and never had an issue
Magpul dose not stand behind their products and will not issue a replacement, refund, or even a partial creadit for manafactures defects on items that they sell. If it is defective you are stuck with it. Go with anything other than Magpul!!!

agreed
even with the plastic retaining clips?
Thanks Mike, learned some good stuff. You were certainly gentle with correcting your viewer :-))
I learned a lot from this video. You demystified the different generations of Pmags. Thanks.
Glad to help

knew I would forget something 😁
Thank you for taking the time to make this video, very informative 👍🏻
You're quite welcome
Great video as usual. Don't let the trolls get to you.
I had a pmag loaded for about 8 years in a storage unit that seen really hot days and really minus temps days and it fired just fine.
That guy must of bugged you. 😂 I like P Mags better than aluminum and yes have some Gen II windows also. 👍🇺🇸
lol, well I don't like being called a liar. 🔨🔨🔨🔨🔨
Very informative. 👍👍
Nice chops. You have great hair too anyways good video

Why does the Gen 1 window seem longer than the Gen 1 non-window?
optical illusion

that number, I am not sure about. The date stamp is the one that looks kinda like a clock.
Thanks
Those are lot and batch numbers.
Bought 5 Pmag Gen 3 for FALs. None worked. Failed to feed,failed to cycle. Trash canned all 5.
I've never heard of that, not for any platform. Very odd
Wild that you’d just throw them out instead of just selling them lol. You could’ve recouped most if not all of your money.
FAL's are far more varied than AR's in terms of magazine wells. This comparison is functionally useless.

So which gen is best? What gen should be avoided?
They all seem to work fine for me. If they break, call magpul and see what they can do for you.
Non should really be avoided but generally gen 3 is going to be the best. All of mine are gen 2 just because I got a good deal on a bunch of them years ago and never had an issue
forbidden brace on the table
10 years of using braces... bound to show up in videos
No worries. 🤭👍🕺🏻💥🔨
