    Magazines either run or they don't. The Cammenga mags didn't want to run and they were sharp. That's all you really need to know. Stick to PMAGS and L5 mags and get a LULA loader - much better combo than the Cammenga mag.

    For the record, I never called the Cammenga mags "sh*t" - there, not really a nasty word .
    Well I could not make out just what he was posting about. So you say the Cammenga mags have a sharp edge? Well did they fail to preform when being fired? Did they fall free from the magwells?

    I have a bunch of P-Mags they are good but the Lancer System L5s have metal feed lips and thats a real important item to this user.

    Green Tweed is a long time material Engineering Company and they are behind the Lancer L5 Mag Engineering. If they added the metal feed lips it's because they know they need them for the real long haul or the real deal life in combat.

    Now the jury is still out until I get a chance to use the Cammenga mag.

    I see your point but I will disagree with the need for metal feedlips. The PMAG's have been thoroughly tested and abused, the feedlips are tough as nails. I think L5 added metal feedlips to try and set themselves apart from Magpul - the PMAG is a hard act to follow. They are different, that doesn't mean they are better.

    I have had 0 issues with the pmags and there lips they have been run through
    1ks of rounds of semi and full auto fire.. to me metal feed lips are a non issue


    Lancer mags seam to be a really good mag almost boring so far. except one issue with mine. caused by a bushmaster rifle that was failing to lock open and lancer is aware of this..




    as for real deal life etc what is that to be exact? please advise!
    beacus ei know of few that use pmags for the same reason. as of right now in many bad places.

    Well it's good to see so many people and their Companies getting into working on new products for the good old trusty ARs. A while back many thought it was the end of the AR road and now it's wide open full speed ahead. You go the the firearm shows and it's table after table of ARs and AR stuff. Now that good news to this AR rifleshooter.

    His mom called him to bed.


    the idea is to learn and get feed back, I guess that is why lancer dumped a huge box of mags in my lap and said kill them and gives us feedback. and im going to run them in a state combat rifle match championship this month as well.


    metal, plastic. etc.. mags area disposable item get over IT when they go bad get a new one.
