Only one issue, I had a bunch of Sierra 69grainSMK's I loaded to beyond max length dimension, the longest I could get to operate through the GI mags, they would not feed through the P-mag, other than that they have been perfect.

I haven't experienced any issues...but it's still too early for me to vote that they are the current "Gold Standard".
Several Mag designs have come and gone over the last 10 years. The only one that has continued to be flawless in functioning is the USGI spec. Mags.
This could very well change, and I wouldn't be surprised that the PMAG's would stand the test of time. This being said, I wouldn't do a "Swap Out" of my existing USGI D&H Teflon Mags for any new Mag. No need to. They're not broke, and certaintly don't need any fixing.
Here's some interesting research on the Pmag. According to preliminary results, they eliminate the need for M4 feedramps!

My roommate had some Orlites (I think) and I wasn't impressed. THey sounded/felt "gritty" and the follower had a lot of tilt/bind feeling when I pressed on one end or the other of it. What makes a PMAG better than an Orlite? I have never handled a PMAG. Is it a worthy investment over my NHMTG 20 rounders?
Well, the PMAG is made from a polymer 30 years newer in formulation. 30 years in the polymer world is an eternity. Not to mention it is better in about a dozen differing ways besides that.
A Sopwith camel and an F-22 are both airplanes but that is about where the similarity ends.
Orlites are garbage compared to PMAGS. I own and have ran both and there is no comparison.
The Orlites will be sold off real soon to buy more PMAGS.
Somehow I don't think they are obsolete in New York.![]()
I just came across a box of NIW pre-bans for which I paid $20 each.![]()
And that was when the dollar was worth significantly more.![]()
Wonder how much I can sell then for?![]()
Then I can buy some P-Mags.![]()
