I have Magpul/Lancer/GI mags for "serious" purposes, but has anyone tried the Amend2 mags as far as functionality? They offer some interesting specialty designs and colors.

I just bought a couple of their glow-in-the-dark mags to use with my PSA "Ghost Gun" lower. I wouldn't expect them to hold up to extensive use, but I'll be happy if they function reliably.

.223 and 5.56 may be be ok but the two 6.5 grendel mags I have are not.

I was given two in a private sale, one dumped half a mag when I dropped it at the range. That one was painted red and thrown in the “range use only pile”, the other one was still in the plastic so I just threw it in the back of the safe.

In my limited experience they are okay for range use.

They are straight garbage.  Feed lips spreading out.  Wont fit in the magwell.  Rounds fucking falling out of the mags all willy nilly.
Absolute horse shit.

I had some of the first generation and they not only swelled when left loaded for a couple years, the actually dumped have the rounds out. I ended throwing them all in the garbage. I understand they are significantly better now so who knows?

I just gave away 10 223/5.56 mags . They were unable to run a single mag without failures.

The Amend 2 guys don't even use their own mags on the range.   Every time I see them they run Pmags.

I mean that says everything.
I wouldn’t buy them if they were more than $5 but the ones i used worked well enough for range use.
If i got one for free i would use it until it breaks. So like 2 weeks maybe?
ETA I give them credit for making large capacity mags as a statement. Could use better execution.

They are okay, but with pmags, Lancers, and D&H available, there's no real reason to get them. ETS gets a lot of grief for their Glock mags, but their AR mags work well for the most part. And they're not expensive.
