Pmag lip question (magazine dated 10/08)

[Kilo 1-1]

Hey guys,
I just noticed that one of my Pmags has small section missing on the feed lip. Out of all my Pmags, this is the only one that has this. Strange thing is, the area that's missing happens to be where the rim of the casing would sit at. I don't know if this was caused by my rifle...or by operator error, but it would seem strange since the polymer used is pretty damn strong. I have to repeat that only this magazine has this, and I was wondering if anyone else had similar issues? That said, the magazine continues to operate 100%, and I haven't had any problems with my other Pmags. The manufacturing date was 10/08...and is one of my newer Pmag (my newest one being the new generation model).
Pictures here...and thanks in advance for any info.

apparently you can break off parts of the feedlip and it'll still work

I would suggest you contact Magpul directly or you can PM one of several of their guys who post here and I'm sure they'll take good care of you. Travis Haley and Chris Costa post on here and they're both with Magpul.

They're with Magpul Dynamics... the TRAINING DIVISION.

Contacting Magpul Directly would be better.

That is purely visual. It will have absolutely zero effect on function of the magazine or your weapon.

More than likely it was chipped off while loading rounds...

You're right, I stand corrected.

Yes contact Magpul directly as the CEO does not need to solve this problem unless it is not getting solved through the regular channels but Travis does claim to now be the CEO of Magpul Industries (the manufacturer)

good luck in contacting them, i bought 6 of the P-mags, which i have no problem with, it's the flip off cover that must be used on loaded mags, i have 3 mags that are basically useless because the cover broke, two of them from hooking the tip on my belt or pocket, the other when it hit on a concrete floor.

thank you for this info:

What do you mean "good luck in contacting them"? I work for Magpul and I have already posted in this thread. Are you implying that you can't get in contact with us? Have you tried calling 1.877.4MAGPUL and talking to our Tech Support guy, Justin? He's busy, but generally very responsive.

Also, why are your mags useless without snap covers? I personally throw the damn things away...
