    Very true....however magazines (in the Army - the Marines can't be that much different) generally go along these lines.....nasty, thrashed GI mags you draw from Supply or the Arms room and turn in when you leave the unit, actual issued PMags, or personally bought PMags. There are hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of these magazines in the system. They're there, and they became so awesomely popular, b/c they were leaps and bounds better than the aluminum issued mags. IMO, PMag is synonymous with functioning magazine.


    NickB's post is excellent.

    Irrelevant.

    If I caught anyone destroying their weapon for any reason, I'd go out of my way to ensure they paid for that weapon out of pocket, saw a reduction in rank and got the worst detail in the military for a long time.

    Exercising some due diligence and at very least getting the EMAG is what should be done if one simply must have Magpul magazines.

    How is a working magazine irrelevant? PMags are so popular because they ****ing work.....unlike the typical issued aluminum magazine.

    I'm also not condoning filing down the magwell of an issued weapon. I didn't say that or even hint at it. I don't even want to guess at the fallout of some young stud doing that.

    I think we're also drifting though. This thread isn't about the SCAR or PMags. Maybe another thread? Lol, if there's not already one.


    IMO, the IAR is a good concept and I'm looking forward to hearing first hand accounts.


    ETA: roger on the Emags.....problem is all the PMags already in service, issued and personally purchased.

    Hey, you poor benighted no-SA-having bucket of yuck...

    I WORKED ON THAT PROGRAM. You don't tell me. I tell you.

    LWRC was not selected. HK was selected. The HK M27 IAR is a closed bolt weapon.

    Are you picking up what's getting put down, yet?

    Quick question......was the topic of other mags such as the PMag ever brought up or was it a slight oversight due to most people not being very familiar w/ HK products? I know other knowledgeable guys on LF were caught by surprise.

    They are surprised because they are stupid.

    The HK416 pre-dates the PMAG

    The 416 works with STANAG magazines. STANAG stands for Standardization Agreement. That aint the PMAG

    wow.......ok. Those guys are far from stupid.....you should know that from your time over there. Feel free to go tell them that.

    Is the IAR THE 416 or a version of the 416?

    I'm not being a dick or argumentative. I'm asking the man who worked on the program.
