@AK-12
I just got back from an anniversary trip and called my bank about being over charged. It's only $18 but their handling of the situation has rubbed me the wrong way. Feel free to use my pictures showing the advertised price if you need to. |

The banning or confiscation of weapons is a denial of the nature of Man, a pathetic attempt to avert the violence innate to Mankind, an insult to the Sacred Creed of the Murdercube.

If y’all don’t hate GMW that bad, they now have translucent green 30s available.
They are much darker than the alien green. |
|
|
Those appear to be the same ones that Big Daddy Unlimited had the exclusive on last year. Despite people calling them OD green, they are labeled as Translucent Green. Here's a comparison of Magpul and Lancer ODG vs. the Translucent Green color.

Business must be bad for GMW or they have someone else fulfilling their Lancer orders.
I ordered yesterday and the claim to have shipped it today. If true, I should receive the package tomorrow. We will see. |
|
|
Ordered a couple translucent OD yesterday from GMW. Shipping today. I also ordered a few 20 round pink mags a week ago or so, and got them very fast.
|
|
|
Ordered Thursday from GMW delivered Saturday.
I’ve never gotten anything that fast from them. |
|
|
Ordered some of the translucent green, and pink ones from GMW. Ordered at 1308 today, shipping notice arrived in my Inbox at 1558.
|
|
Political Idiocracy - the belief that a wall to keep out people invading our country is wrong, but putting a wall around the Capitol to keep Americans out is reasonable.
|
The mags themselves appear identical but the barcode and product code have changed from run to run on the translucent green mags. As well as some other text differences. Left is the current run from GMW and right is the last batch from BDU.

Later learned people were actively looking for them as they were very hard to come by. I put .ine on the EE and a guy local said he had an Aero Freedom upper/lower set he would trade for the 2 blue ones I had. Traded them PDQ. |

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.

I also use mine. Lancers are exclusively for 300blk,
I just want to make a rainbow (no homo) load out. Come on blue and yellow! Chest right-red/orange/yellow, gun-green, belt-blue/purple. Or some similar combination. Because fags shouldn’t have the monopoly on refracted light. |

I've been using my oddball colored Lancers as range mags. Harder for them to grow legs and walk off.
Wow. Yellow is in the pipeline? Awesome. Would love to get a few more blue ones. I traded my 2 original Robin's egg blue ones for an Aero Freedom upper/lower set. |

I only shoot outdoors on dirt so black and FDE mags are a nightmare. snow doesn't help either. i need to buy some green or orange ones before winter and just have a range set. they'll get all gummed up with carbon from suppressed use, so they should look cool after a while. I wonder if these are popular in competition shooting where the extra visibility may help..? has yellow been confirmed yet or is that what we are all just guessing? |

I have no idea if yellow or blue is coming, just wishful thinking.

View Quote The first run of blue, pink, red, and purple had colored floor plates as well. The current red and purple have switched to black floor plates to I assume just streamline the manufacturing process. |

I'm sure you could find them cheaper somewhere else, but if it turns out that you can't, magged supply has them as "rebuild kits" for people in commie states.
Edit: No experience with these people, but MUCH cheaper and shows in stock https://www.omahaoutdoors.com/lancer-l5awm-20-round-magazine-translucent-fde/ |
