Magpul Pmags the #1 AR15 magazine

Magpul Pmags are the most durable and reliable AR15 magazine and have extended the life of the direct impingement firearm. Magpul Pmags are available in Black, OD Green, Foliage and Dark Earth. We are a stocking dealer for all Magpul Accessories, gun grips, magazine accessories and gun stocks. Our inventory of Magpul Pmags are also available in 10rd, 20rd and 30rd magazine capacities.

Everyone seems to think that the AR15 always uses 30rd magazines, but for those that have trained, there is something that balances out the M4 Carbine very well by using 20rd round magazines. The Magpul Pmags that we sell are the most reliable AR15 magazines and there is lots of proof if you do your research on the internet or Youtube. Magpul Pmag durability is superb and the AR15 magazines are available in Black, Dark Earth, Foliage and OD Green.  There is a new generation 3 pmag that is coming out very soon.

Magazines and Magazines with windows

I learned a very long time ago to be careful what you say when you are in the middle of a fight.  I’m no combat veteran but it was good that I learned my lesson a paintball course and not on the battlefield.  When you are running low on ammunition the last thing you do is announce it in the middle of an engagement.   A long time ago I, along with a friend of mine were in the middle of a paintball engagement and it was the last battle of the day.  We were both running low on paintball ammunition and the odds were against us.  The teams were 14 vs 15 and the two of us had 9 of the 15 players coming towards us.  We both had less than 40rds left and none of our fellow team members were around to back us up.

As we were engaged and almost cornered my friend retreated to my position and yelled “i’m almost out of ammo, I only have about 20 paintballs left” I announced ” I only have 20 paintballs left. Meanwhile It hit me like a ton of bricks that that was the last thing I should have annouced to 75% of the team, after that I learned to keep my mouth shut, but having magpul pmags  with the windows was something I thought about after that day.  Knowing approximately how many rounds of ammuntion you have left before you move forward in an engagement is a good thing.  Under stress it’s real hard to tell if you put 8rds off or 15rds.  Knowing you are half full rather than finding out you made a forward advance with 3rds left in the magazine.

Not announcing your firearm while trying to take cover

There have been many times that I have been at the range and was downrange changing targets and could look back and see the firearms on the table.  I remember hearing about all of those sniper and counter sniper stories about seeing the flash of a rifle scope and knowing exactly where your opponent was.  It really is that obvisous when you are on the opposite end of a rifle and the sun is behind  you but there are also may modern acccessories that don’t help you keep a low profile.   Trijicon sells the flash kill device for then end of an ACOG and they are very important is sunny places like Iraq.  As soon as you look out the window with your firearm you can announce your presence from hundreds of yards away if you do  not use a flash kill.

Many flashlights also give you away and having a red lense over the end of your light or anything other than the white reflective mirrors can help.  There are other things you can do by even using different color magpul pmags other than Black.   Black magazines can cover you in darkness but in certain urban environments foliage green or flat dark earth might be a better magazine to use.  Mixing up your rifle stock colors or even painting it to match it’s environment can help give you a better chance at using concealment.
