PMAGs rock - huge difference from steel mags. I've trusted my life with them. Link below is a bit biased since its from the manufactor, but still has a lot of good info as well as what they did to test it. http://www.magpul-pts.com/pdfs/PMAGPress.pdf"Will the PMAG™ melt under the extreme heat of sustained fully-automatic fire? One PMAG™ has been tested in extreme heat/sustained automatic fire and demonstrated no melt failure. PMAGs™ loaded into a hot gun have run without malfunctioning or showing any signs of strength loss. PMAGs™ have also endured full-auto suppressed fire without ill effects." "I saw a video of a PMAG™ being run over by a truck. Is this test for real? Yes, the PMAG™ was actually run over with a truck. All test samples were randomly selected from shipping inventory. The vehicle belongs to a Magpul employee and no changes were made to the vehicle between tests. Video of the truck test may be found on various online video distribution outlets. PMAG™ Truck Test: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UCFXcOOb4jc "

Instead of making a new thread I will post this here, what is the point in the ranger plates? They are made so its easy to pull them out of your vest etc. Before these, you made a similar contraption out of paracord and 100MPH tape.

Really not sure what I want at this point. I am just learning as much as I can about these things right now so that I can make a educated decison on what I want later.
I bought one about 10 years ago and really didnt have a clue what I was doing. I love the one I bought but its just too big and heavy for what I use it for so I dont want to make another mistake like that.
Pretty much all I know at this point is that I want a 16" barrel. Still trying to figure out all the other details.

Never understood the zombie thing. It's kind of a generic moniker for some make believe invasion of zombies, russians, chinese, etc. Basically whatever foe those that turn an AR-15 into a 45 lb. log could dream up.

the pmags are great they cost a little more at 15 dollars instead of 8 dollars but they are very durable. they only thing you have to worry about it the lips cracking. 1 of mine has cracked at like 2 years of extreme use. and by that i mean reloaded 30 times a week and kept loaded in between shooting sessions. i have a few metal mags and the only reason i still have them is because they were easy to find locally when i needed them by the end of the day.

Went and checked them out. Couldn't find one in less than 20 rounds. Do they make a 5 or 10?

all ive seen are 20 round pmags with a spacer in them that only allows 10 rounds. if you want the low profile it doesnt help but if you are in restricted states then it works
