    Mine came with a pmag - yes. And yes, it does do windage in the rear, but not elevation - my mistake.

    ...so just use the Pmag until you buy more...

    Geee - I figured I can use the GIs and mess up a bunch of ammo... LOL!

    L5s on the way.

    Only reason I took issue is people, like me, tend to skim posts and reviews. And if my gun had 3 stoppages in 120 rounds, it wouldn't be MY gun very long.

    I don't own a DD, but I'm running their barrel, BCG, FF rail, and LPK in a build and I'm currently past 500 rounds without a single malfunction.

    You picked a hell of a gun. If you are still having malfunctions with the L5s or Pmags, contact DD about it. My limit is 1 gun related malfuction per 1k rounds, or the gun is finding a new home.

    Hope you orderd those L5s from BCM. Everywhere else seems to want to bend you over on price for those things. Personally, I prefer Magpul.

    ordered the L5s from BCM. I got them because they are a bit cheaper AND they have metal feed lips.

    I'm not too worried about the feeding. on the third one, I popped the mag, and you should have seen where the follower was - about 1" down - big time nose dive by the spring/follower - no rifle would have fed that round. So... I'm not going to sweat it until I fire more with the L5s.

    but.. my son's M&P did not hiccup. Could have been the way he was holding the mag/rifle... or maybe they finally failed.

    Rest assured, if I have ANY issues with L5 or my Pmags, I'll be talking to DD!
