The
new Magpul M-PMAG is an improved
version (second generation) of their
PMAG (Polymer Magazine). Both versions
of the PMAG fit the AR15 / M16 series
rifles and most other 5.56x45 firearms
which use the AR15 magazine. The
PMAG was intended to improve reliability,
long-term storage, overall durability
with a new design and modern materials.
The Magpul M-PMAG holds 30 rounds
without any need for downloading
to insert properly. Both the original
PMAG and new M-PMAG have an Impact
Cover that snaps firmly onto the
top of the magazine to provide impact
protection for the feed lips, dirt/dust
intrusion, and eliminating distortion
of the feed lips caused by long-term
loaded storage. The Original PMAG
Impact Cover had a lanyard hole to
prevent loss, the newer M-PMAG allows
the Impact Cover to clip to the bottom
plate of the magazine. The M-PMAG
features a special 4 way anti-tilt
follower. The PMAG is made out of
long fiber reinforced polymer and
has a stainless steel spring for
corrosion resistance. The Magpul
M-PMAG is made in the USA
