They look great and I like the clear window

but

I wonder how the feedlips will hold up? Are they reinforced with aluminum?

Great pricing by the way!

Should be interesting for a Truck gun build. I'll have to give some of these a try.

Regarding the Glock mags...
The mag catch on the Glock pistol is also made of polymer where as the mag catch on the AR is metal...
I could see that as the wear potential...

I'm a fan of Magpul products but unless these can be had for less than the CProducts mags, I doubt I'd ever buy any. I'm sure others will buy them buy the boatload.

Did you even read the first post in this thread???

Sure done did, Hawkeye.

rich what if you molded in some sorta device so you could couple two mags together similar to that sig 550 series mags?

Then why are you asking if they can be had for less than CProducts mags? I'm confused.

Okay, I'll be the first cheese ball.

I don't really care either way, but I think a transparent quality AR mag would sell like hotcakes. Even the old clear Eagle mags are still in high demand and they're complete junk. The SIG 556 guys alone would probably buy more than you could make.

Same here. Taking that design and going a step further.. you could almost go all the way to making a water tight mag.

But as it is it looks to already be sand proof.

-Estimated retail price will be $11.95 for non window and $14.95 for dual Maglevel version.

CProducts teflon mags are less than that from 44mag.com

Again, you already have the prices so you already knew the answer.
Still confused, but whatever. Back to the mags.

I think these are two awesome recommendations. I'd sooner buy a transparent mag with coupling "tabs/slots". Not saying these MagPul mags aren't sweet, but I'd probably go more out of my way to get transparent ones.

sweet, cant wait to check them out on friday.

finally a polymer mag thats worth having.

Transparent would be very nice.

Hopefully some day there will be a completely reliable, preloaded, disposable magazine. Pop off top, insert into rifle, discard when empty.

Going to take a helluva price point for that to happen though.

Hmm...I can't help but point out that ARDEC is in the midst of it's own 30 round composite magazine, featured at last years Joint Services Small Arms Systems Annual Symposium: www.dtic.mil/ndia/2006smallarms/foltz.pdf.

I wonder if they'd be interested in the PMAG, and is that a MagPul follower on pages 4 and 6...

I think if you live where high capacity is still illegal then you can't own one of these mags. I don't live where they are restricted.

While transparent would be even cooler I'll still be looking at 10 or so (with window).

Magpul,

We are at the Shot Show alright. This is coming from the floor of the show.

Restricted markings are an inset in the mold and can be removed during molding. We have to have the markings to sell to LE in 5 or so states.

Come by and see us we have some other new stuff to show.

Why Wouldn't they be?

. I Just would like to give these new mags some heavy testing to see how much they can take.
