    Anyone else rcv'd a 'white' colored Magpul P-Mag ?

    Hello All, I just rcv'd a few 20 rd Magpul P-Mags from Brownell's, & to my surprise & dismay, they appear to be almost white in color ? I ordered the 'Sand' color, which I assumed would be similar to all my other FDE P-Mags. Were these mags possibly frkm an off color lot, or is this the new 'sand' color from Magpul ? If I wanted Artic White mags, I would have ordered them ! Anyone elseelse have this experience ? THANKS

    Best, dpast32

    Nope, that white is the sand colored mags, it nowhere close to FDE. I have a feeling they never sold that well, I've got a pile I picked up for a rainy day on sale for like $7 bucks last year before the election, still sitting in the wrapper too.

    That they do. Not that I personally have had a desire to do that.

    Anyway, photo showing color difference for anyone wondering.



    Yep, the sand mags would be good for an arctic warfare rifle. Which considering my AO? Why the hell not. I need another project like I need another hole in my ass.

    I think this was the whole reason they used that color. So the user could make them anything they wanted.

    I've been buying Sand PMags since they came out. If they ever come out with Sand furniture, I'll probably get that too
