Re: Army bans commercial M-4 magazines

Heartland Patriot wrote: I have four Okay Industries "Mil-Spec" magazines. It is quite legal to buy them, IF you can find them. They, like all magazines meeting the mil-spec, are made with an aluminum body and the "green follower" which helps prevent failures-to-feed. They feed well from MY AR-15 and drop free just fine. I trust them to work. That said, they are nothing special, either. They cannot be improved because they have to meet the mil-spec and it takes quite a while to get the mil-spec either amended or superseded. Standard government bureaucracy, you know. I don't own any, but I have seen the PMAGs. If the GIs using them in the sandbox say they are better than the Okay Industries mags, I believe them. THEY, the folks on the pointy end of the spear, are the authority, as far as I'm concerned.
I have a quantity of both Okay and NHMTG 30-rd mags and NHMTG 20-rd mags. Quite happy with them all. No PMags, but I suppose I will some day.

If you're looking for Okay Ind. Mags, $12.03 each:

LCI also has some really nice MWC's:
