Never seen it myself, but I'm not a high volume large frame shooter, and I stick with PMAGs, due to the Lancer 25s having excessive spring tension (even after Lancer clipped off a coil for me for each of my mags) and the steel feedlips having more drag when dirty (which happens quickly in my suppressed SR-25), and thus not feeding after an empty chamber reload, as the round will only come out the magazine halfway when dropping the bolt.
I will also note that SIG and Lancer already worked in the past before for their MPX mags, so they certainly already had some kind of working relationship when it came to magazines.
That's interesting to me... I had to polish the feed lips on my L7AWMs for reliable feeding, especially the first round on a full mag. I don't shoot my AR308 suppressed so I guess I'll note if the mags start to stick after X number of rounds.
