    I have had a few gen 2 replaced by magpul last year. My current batch of bad gen 3 I emailed magpul over the week end but haven't received a response yet.

    That's funny, I don't recall anyone asking for what you find amusing? I for one, don't care, but I don't like to be obliquely insulted. If you have something to say, say it. I'm not going to be MagPul fanboy because Chris Costa uses it.

    As for not realizing it was an issue until others mentioned it, I recently just bought my Pmags about 6 months ago, and hadn't really used them until lately. Had trouble doing tactical reloads as part of some carbine lessons I am taking. That said, I just realized it was an issue within the last few weeks.

    In case you gentlemen missed it.
    In post #12 of this thread is a question I asked Magpul last year and their answer about this condition.
    The last two paragraphs states what to do if you do not want to read the long reply.
    Just saying.

    All I own are Pmags. They are the only ones I've never had a problem with.

    That's cool and I'm not trying to invalidate your choice, but what other mags have you used and what kind of problems?

    Oh man, D&H, some mags I got from Bravo Co (sorry don't remember exactly what they were), Tangodown, some unknown a friend had from his military time. The only problem would be jamming as it got closer to the last few rounds. I had this with all the above mags. Now to be honest it wasn't every time, but it did happen at least once in all the above mentioned. These were all fired from my personal BCM.

    To be crystal clear: I've not had any Malfs with PMAGs (all I've ever used for personal use...thousands of rounds), just the issue with a Loaded Mag being seated while Bolt is in Battery. *Knock on Wood*

    I must also add that some of these mags were old and of unknown round count. To be fair I believe the springs were just flat wore out. My Pmags are all less than two years old.

    Yup. I've never used D&H mags, but I've used lots of Centers, lots of Okay/NHMTG/Colts. They all run fine and hold up quite well for me.

    It seems like Pmags always get compared to 'what's left on the last day of the gunshow surplus mags' that are usually made up of mis-matched parts that were wore out decades ago.

    Compare 'em to new Centers, Okays, or Brownells and the performance gap closes quite a bit. Nothing wrong with Pmags if they work for you though.
