IMD Defense Polymer magazine

Surprised these are "Not Available in your (USA) country"

I wouldn't mind having one in each color just as a collection item/conversation piece.

I like the simple, clean design.

They are not very impressive compared to the available US mags.

They look like the shitty Orlite mags from the 80's.

That price is a kick in the nuts. Who is paying that much for a mag?

Orlite mags were great...

for chopping-down to make sleeves for covering .22 conversion kit mags.

Now with more political fatigue.

I have some of the G2 Enhanced mags for .308. Pretty decent. I think they were under $20 when I got them ages ago. Wish they were still available, a lot of the Israeli polymer mags are pretty cool aesthetically and functionally workable.

They were kind of replaced by the more robust ones. Not sure I would buy anymore unless it was for collector reasons or cheap range use mags that I did not leave loaded for extended periods.

Note that they also have the AR-180 mag catch.

I believe these are the same shitty mags sig used to supply w their model 556 series.

IMI has a place not too far from Knoxville. Wonder if they have those mags.

I hated going to weddings. All the grandmas would poke me and say "You're next". They stopped that when I started doing it to them at funerals.

Those mags suck and are too expensive. If they have them at their TN facility, I’d let them stay in the building vs coming home with you…

All, It's been good thread; lots of great replies and feedback.

Too bad this clean looking mag isn't living up to our standard.
