| I'm was wondering what 7.62 magazine allows the greater OAL, Larue, Magpul or Lancer? |

Quoted:
All are great magazines. Polymers need a bit more material for structural strength. LaRue: 2.867" Lancer: 2.840" Magpul: 2.840" (average of 5 measurements) Thank You mfingar for the answers Sir. Did you guys have a price change on the 7.62 magazines in the last few months? When the Lancers were released I thought they were more than the LaRue magazines. unless I missed something along the way. |

I have a couple of magpul's for my 7.62. They won't take a cartridge loaded to 2.82". Having said that, the same cartridge loaded in a LT magazine had room to spare. Roentgun that's good info, because that's shorter than the measurement mfingar gave. I was kinda set on going with the LaRue magazines but was wondering what the number are. Thank You for the help! |

Pretty sure I've never seen them going for what the Lancers are selling for. |

Although they are pricey they are not your run of the mill GI mags. Outside of the most egregious abuse, I have no doubt these will last the lifetime of my rifle(which doesn't live it's life in a safe btw). |

They still not that bad, look at the price of Accuracy International mags. |

The OAL of the new M118LR/SR PMAG is a bit longer to accomodate the 2.81-something~ish OAL required for that round.
The only mag I've seen have a longer OAL allowance than the LaRue mag is the KAC mag (and not by much), and I can tell that the one that I have is definitely a bit lesser in the fit/finish department than the LaRue mags. |
