    Is there any official data of the polymer used? How much heat can it take?

    What is the official cold test? Any testing of having it down to minus 5 degrees F ( -15 degrees C) and dropped on the concrete?

    I don't have problems with polymer mags, after all, HK, Steyr, SIG and Sako use them too. Some of these pictures are very nicely done for marketing and advertising - but if Magpul can publish some of the official testing data that will be great. Lots of nice pics of having the Pmags driven over by trucks-that is pretty cool, however, I am more interested in how the feedlips will survive on drops and heat. I would want o know how it will do if I smack the bottom of the pmag on some hard surface when it is attached to the rifle, or if the floorplate will separate from the body if the heel of the mag is dragged across some rough terrain.

    Zak, is that a different cheek piece on the UBR? If so how does it feel.

    I hope Drake can answer that. It's whatever he handed me.

    The version Zak has in the pics has the ACR type cheek weld. It's not a riser, just a different shape. The ACR type and standard cheek piece will both be available upon release.

    Man bro,
    I've been dying to ask you about the paint job on that Coyote/Desert colored AR withe TA11 on it.
    Who makes that rifle (or who makes the upper and lower), and what's the scoop on that paint job? Man it's rockin, and I've been dying to know who applied that finish, and what the hell do you call it??? Is it a One-Off paint scheme, or what???
    Details bro!

    The upper is from MSTN (see the Lightweight 17" Comp-Tac thread) and the lower is really old.

    The rifle has a base coat of FDE or TAN or something, and the pattern is simply the result of spraying it through some netting. Totally ghetto.

    Shoot,
    It looks good if you ask me, and I'm sure others will agree. Nothing ghetto about that...
    I absolutely LOVE the look of the round forearms, and I see you post so many pics of them, I can only assume you love that look (or fit and function) too.
    I think I'm getting ready to buy one like the one on your "ghetto paint job" rifle. I THINK I remember you saying that was one of the VTAC's or PRI's, but I'll have to double check that old post to see.
    As always, thanks Zak...
