Magpul Gen2 vs Gen3 PMAGS

[monkeywrench]

They all missed the bolt catch. I will not be buying anymore pmags I think I will stay with aluminum magazines. Also this was with window mct gen 3. The non windows function just fine.

Well heck just stay with gen 2, if they're working well.

All I have is gen 2, non windowed. Cheapest, and they work great. Is there really any advantage to gen 3, if you're not running M855A1?

Haa! Same here! Window MCT gen 3! If you swap the followers with the non window it'll start working right. At least our lowers and bolt catches are in spec. Magazines are dispensable

Yeah seems like the gen 2 have better batches and less defects.

I don't care for the color black. Here in Arizona anything black gets hot fast and melts. This ranges from street light covers, garbage cans, even mailbox posts. Okay magazines are cheaper than pmags. And the new pmags just sovled the issue with M855A1 ammo.

I genuinely spend time wondering why I never have any of the issues people post about on this forum.

I miss the OD green Pmags...thank goodness I stocked up on them

I haven't noticed any issues with my Gen 3 MCT Pmags..but I only have 2 and only fired 60 rounds out of them...

I kinda gave up on PMAGS after I had several new Gen 2 and Gen 3's crack down the spine on different occasions. I won't be getting rid the rest but I pretty much only run Okay Surefeeds, D&H's and some older Elanders when it comes to 30 rounders. 20rd PMAGs are still my jam.

I understand why the military is going this way. But if there ever is a ban again the aluminum magazines will be easier to fix.
