    Anyhow, that pic was hosted on the foto server of TOS. It might be gone for good!
    Let me know - I might have a place for it in something I'm doing for Magpul.

    With what is out and comming out, I don't really see a reason to own GI mags.
    HK, P mag, 20rd P mag.
    Thanks, Pete

    Will the PMAG's fit in mag pockets of chest rigs designed to hold two magazines? In other words, are the PMAG's wider at the base than USGI mags?

    I use a chest carrier by Blackhawk that has 4x2mag pockets. I would hate to start buying PMAG's, only to find out they don't fit in all of the mag pouches designed for USGI mags.

    Yes to all!

    Try putting a MagPul self-leveling follower in these. You will be amazed.

    The MagPuls won't hurt either.

    I've been running the Pmags for the last two days. Gotta say, I'm kinda "meh" about them. I got the orange ones, which are of some value to me due to the color, but otherwise.... I have one or two issues personally.

    Ultimately I still think I'd rather buy 100 D&H from Bravo, but evidently I'm alone in this. I do, however, see the economy in buying a Pmag for $12 vs. (for example) a Brownells with a Magpul follower for $15.

    Now, If Magpul offered me 100 custom yellow Pmags at $1k shipped....

    You are not as alone as you think. I just bought a batch of damn-near new USGI mags from Hawkeye, complete with Magpul followers, L-Plates and some Krylon for $11 each, delivered.

    Of Coors, he is switching to P-Mags.

    Find me that picture and I'll send you a couple more! Maybe even an orange one! Or a clear/smoke one if Drake will let me...
