Well I did a lot of searching and am still confused but did learn a hell of a lot. I am still new here and dont even have my AR yet as it only ships of on Jan 2nd. I looked in the PMAG post and found THIS website. There are 4 different PMAGS and I dont know the difference. I read some have windows, so dont I dont know what they are talking about. I am looking a PMAG that will fit into my RRA Elite CAR .223. Help lol

Any you can find in stock are the ones you want.

But for me I would get the 30rd non window ones.

All will fit your gun.

That listing has 20rd and 30rd and With or without the window.

There are only three types of PMAGS, a 30-round mag with windows, a 30-round mag without windows,
and a 20-round mag. They came in 4 standard colors, black, FDE (flat-dark earth), OD green, and
foliage green.  Although there was a short run of blaze orange.  There was a proposed semi-transperant
"smoke" mag, but it has yet to come to market.
They will all fit your AR unless something is out of spec.

Yeah, get any ones that you are able to.  I recently added the 20 round magazines to my lineup.  I wanted something that doens't stick out as much from the bottom of the gun.  When the SHTF though, you'll want plenty of 30 round magazines.

Awesome thanks guys. In that case I think I will get the PMAG non window ones since that is originally what I was going to get. That site seems to have them in backordered is there any places that have them in I wonder?

I personally like the black, non-windowed PMags. I don't see a need for the window and even if I did, it' so small that it can only give you an idea of how many rounds you have left anyway so to me, it's not worth the extra $3 or whatever they cost.

The good news is the black non-windowed PMags are the ones that Magpul is making the most of right now so they should be a little easier to find. Don't forget to get some 20 rounders as well. Much nicer for shooting prone or on the bench.

good call on the 20 rounders I never thought about that.

Anyone know of any trusted sites or vendors on here to buy from?

all out, and when they are in....gone fast!  Some sites allow backorders.

You might try your local shops, they will usually call you when they come in.

When did you order your rifle?  I ordered Stag.....likely to get in ...... March or later! (my first AR....can't wait!)

Right now the majority of the places you will find them at, WILL be back ordered. If you can find some that are in stock, JUMP ON THEM!! Like These!! It's a FOUR PACK of Flat Dark Earth Pmags WITH WINDOW for 100 bux. ONLY FOUR LEFT!!

If you can only find sites with back orders, look for sites that have them priced right around 15 bux. You can find them. You can get them for that price at LaRue Tactical. They will take care of you!!
