If your going to have that many rounds, at least use a drum so its compact. No reason to have that many rounds in a single mag unless its full auto and again, a drum would be more compact for prone use.

How about a 30-40 round quad-stack that is the same height as a 20 for easier prone use?

Yeah.... pretty pointless with the straight pull stuff we have...... I like 30 rounders just because my arms get a rest from faffing with the cocking every shot.

So? They simply won't be able to buy them. The other 44 or 45 states they're legal in are GTG, yet people keep saying how they should pick them up before they're banned. You know, the same states it's been legal to buy beta mags and AK drums in. It's a shitty attitude to have and hurts the gun rights community as a whole. It's the same mentality that my FIL has about AR's. He always wanted one, and he finally got one after I married his daughter. He "wanted to get one before they banned them" all the while voting for Obama and every other union-supporting retard on the ticket.

People that are willing to roll over and die just as long as they can get an item before they're banned are just as bad as our enemies.

Had a friend at the FT Benning 3 Gun match that asked the Surefire guy there how they were doing.  My understanding is that the surefire guy ran them the entire match and they didnt have a single stoppage.

I'm referring to civilian sales aka whether _I_ would buy one (or several).  If their master plan is to get a big fat government contract and supply these to the guys carting M27's around, then more power to them.

I know that you know this already, but round count in an "assault weapon" is not about "number of guys you can kill at a time" or even marksmanship... high round counts is about staying in the fight with as little weapon manipulation required as possible.  A 60 round mag would effectively cut the amount of weapon manipulation required in an extended firefight in half versus standard 30 round mags.  This is a good thing.



My question is: can it hold up to being run over by a chevy half ton?

Some of the comments in this thread are really funny, and some are completely retarded...  I just don't get why some care so much about what and why others want something.  I will definitely get a 60 or two.  Why, because I can.  Comparing the cost to a few P-mags makes no sense at all.  You don't understand the purpose of them then.
