Consider it brought-en: I load mine with 28. Sometime a fully loaded mag will be the cause of a FTF.. And I didn't learn that on the internet or read it in a magazine.

I would have to drop the mag, pop a couple of rounds out, and then put the weapon back into action. It happened enough times that I made it a rule to quit loading 30.

But, to each his own. A loaded mag, (no matter how loaded) is more useful than an unloaded mag.


That never happened to me in Afghanistan or Iraq. You sure it was the mags that caused it?



Nope. But then, we were never sure when the pins were going to fall out of our grenades either. So we taped em.

No matter where you were.. 28 worked always. 30 worked sometimes. (And a taped pin never fell out.)
