    I bought one last year and have used it for some SWAT training and while attending a Trident Concepts class. It ran just fine. It is simply another type of tool, if it appeals to you buy one, if not don't. There is a lot of engineering that obviously went into the development of this magazine. For me it was worth the entry fee just to try one out. I did and it lives in the gun safe. I'm not sure if I'll ever use it for anything more serious than punching paper. Domestic law enforcement around here doesn't generally have a need for 60 rounds on tap. I generally roll with a total of 4 mags. I've considered only carrying 2 spares and using the Surefire as the loaded magazine or even just using a 30 and carrying the 60 as a backup but haven't done it yet. I've carried a 20 in the rifle and 30's for back ups for maybe a dozen years and never felt like I needed more but did feel like I had too many on numerous long call outs.

    sometimes the one reload costs too much....

    so it should cost $60 bucks max right?

    i dont see what makes this magazine $110 better than a standard 30rnd

    This is closed because people decided to piss about. If you don't want their magazines, don't buy them. It's as simple as that.
