Also, it was mentioned that certain PMAG colors might be more tough than others. Any truth to this?
I am going to Fairbanks on February 12 -14th during that time I will do some cold weather testing. The Troopers have had some issues with their tests on P Mags. Mostly feed lips cracking is what I have been told. But I have not seen the actual mags. Just word of mouth from a few friends of mine on SERT team. Magpul has been great to them however and has sent a lot more replacement mags for testing to see what the problem is. I will post my video results sometime after the 15th of February. Now just pray for a a cold day in Fairbanks. I am also going to test a few Lancer mags, an ARC mag and a GI mag as a reference. Any ideas you guys have for abusing these things in the cold will be done. So send me some ideas.
