Detailed Analysis:

What Shooters Praise (The Pros)

Reliability

Consistently described as ultra-reliable and durable, these magazines perform flawlessly in both routine range sessions and demanding conditions, including combat scenarios. Users report thousands of rounds cycled without any failures, and they trust these mags above all alternatives.

Performance

Performance is universally praised; the magazines function smoothly, feed rounds perfectly, and are easy to handle even under stress. Both Gen 2 and Gen 3 PMAGs offer equal reliability and durability according to those who've used both versions.

Bargain

These PMAGs are seen as an outstanding deal, especially compared to local shops and other online retailers where prices are much higher. Customers specifically commend the retailer for not inflating prices during high-demand periods, making these mags a top value choice.

What to Know (The Nuances)

- Cleanliness: No negative remarks on fouling or residue buildup; magazines are considered easy to maintain.
- Casing Material: Constructed from durable polymer; not suitable for reloading.
- Dust Cover: Gen 2 PMAGs do not include a dust cover, but users agree this is not essential.
- Compatibility: Gen 2s work well with most rifles but might require minor modification for non-standard platforms (e.g., SCAR bolt catch issue, easily fixed).
- Color Options: Limited availability of colors (e.g., FDE) noted by some, but not a common concern.
- Purchase Limits: Temporary quantity restrictions were mentioned, but did not impact overall satisfaction.

Conclusion

Magpul PMAG Gen 2 magazines are regarded as the gold standard by buyers, combining flawless reliability, outstanding durability, and top-tier value. Ideal for AR-15 owners looking for dependable range and tactical magazines, these mags excel in every critical area, with only minor nuances such as the absence of dust covers or limited color options to consider. For anyone seeking proven performance and unmatched value, these are a clear top choice.

A: Yes sir!

A: No sir, they do not. Once Magpul introduced the Gen 3 PMAG, they stopped including the dust cover with the Gen 2.

A: Thanks for reaching out John! Do you have an MVP Patrol Rifle? If so, that's compatible with AR-15 magazines. Otherwise please tell me what you've got and I'll give you a more specific answer.

Posted On: 4/4/2022 By: Erik Martin

A: Yes sir! This AR-15 magazine should function perfectly in your 5.56 S&W M&P.

Posted On: 4/16/2021 By: Viking

A: Yes sir! Although it's my understanding that specialized 300 AAC Blackout mags offer more reliable feeding, a standard 223/5.56 mag is also compatible with the cartridge.

Posted On: 1/17/2021 By: TC

A: Yes sir, absolutely. This magazine's a great choice for all AR-15 style rifles, your SIGM400 TREAD included!

Posted On: 8/17/2020 By: Michael Jepsen

A: I have heard that too! A big win for gun rights. I can't say just when the cessation of California's high-cap mag ban will take place, but it's not soon enough. I'm sorry to say we can't help you celebrate the restoration of that right, though, as we're currently unable to ship to California.

A: Hi Richard! I'm assuming your Tavor X95 is chambered for 5.56/223. I'm happy to say this magazine will work correctly in your rifle. Here is a video of a man testing this mag in your rifle to a successful result: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iC03yl-iHlA&t=0m47s. IWI also offers Magpul PMAGs for sale on their site, so they evidently endorse the use of PMAGs in their Tavor X95 rifles!

Posted On: 8/26/2019 By: Preston Turner

A: Hi Preston! Yes sir, that mag will work with any AR15 rifle and is often considered one of the best in the market

Posted On: 3/27/2019 By: Joseph D Strickland

A: Hi Joseph. Yes, that Ruger takes any standard AR magazines.

Posted On: 11/26/2018 By: Scott McGee

A: Hi Scott! Yes, this standard 2nd generation Magpul magazine will work very well in your M&P 15. I think you'll find this to be a high quality magazine with its anti-tilt follower and stainless steel spring that provides corrosion resistance.

Posted On: 6/27/2018 By: Michael

A: Hi Michael! Thanks for your question! There are no dumb questions! We were all new to this at some point. To answer your question, yes. These Magpul Gen M2 MOE PMAG 30rd Magazines are specifically designed to fit a number of ARs. They are a great addition to your AR supplies! You can't have too many.

A: Hello Dennis, Magpul Pmags are made from an impact resistant polymer designed by Magpul. They feature a stainless steel spring and an anti-tilt, self-lubricating follower.
