And this bit from Henderson Defense,
“ USGI mags have outlasted all of the other brands. We use UGSI (Brownell's with tan follower) and on a mag for mag basis, they have outlasted Pmags and a few of the other mags that we get from mfg'ers with new weapons. We don't have to worry about various generations with different weapons like the MR556, SCAR, F2000, Tavor or a couple of others that use AR15/M4 magazines.”
Science believes in evolution and global warming. I believe in rounds fired. Henderson only worries and tracks round counts. PMags are proven to be the most reliable magazines for combat use. If one is supplying mags for tourists to burn out barrels then metal mags might last longer and save you a few dollars over millions of rounds. If the US Army or Marine Corps is buying magazines for combat reliability they choose PMags due to the proven better reliability. Butt Fugk Burns, My son is OCONUS right now and all 210 rounds are in USGI mags. And he don’t drive a truck or boil potatoes either. LOL

Super Smart Guy Burns, My son is OCONUS right now and all 210 rounds are in USGI mags. And he don’t drive a truck or boil potatoes either. LOL Now that I have led you to water why not take a drink? Hie yourself down to the local gun emporium and purchase your son the best mags for combat to replace the old stock EPMs his unit issues. Grab him a few 40 rnd PMAGS as they work great when prone and wearing armour. You can thank me later or just keep being a lil bitch while your son carries sub par mags. What your plan? PMAG is Best MagThe Magpul PMAG, specifically the GEN M3, is the most reliable M4 magazine on the planet. That’s not just gunwriter tripe or biased corporate swill. And now the U.S. Army has opened the PMAG to general procurement.
Uncle Sam’s Misguided Children — known in some circles as the U.S. Marine Corps — burned about a zillion rounds comparing all the major magazine offerings on the civilian market against the standard issue EPM (Enhanced Performance Magazine). EPMs are legacy aluminum magazines with all the latest bells and whistles. The Magpul PMAG won everything hands-down. Google “USMC Magazine Test” for details.
While the rest of the DOD (Department of Defense) gobbled up PMAGs like crack-addled beavers, Big Army — an affectionate euphemism for the non-Special Operations earth pigs that do the majority of the military heavy lifting in day-to-day operations around the globe — clung dogmatically to their EPMs.
The EPM was a government product. It was the result of an expensive and extensive developmental process. No one likes to hear that his or her child might not be the smartest preschooler on the playground. As a result, there was an institutional inertia that had to be overcome before Big Army might take seriously the latest, greatest polymer ammunition-feeding device.
That all changed as of August 2018.

I have some Vietnam era 20 round aluminum mags that work perfectly though some have been re springed and followers replaced. But if the test of time matters they are good enough. I like aluminum better than plastic but have plenty of both. As for steel I have a couple and they appear to be OK. I like 20 round magazines the best for reasons already mentioned but 30's are ok also.

As of year, and half ago the good ol US Army was still issuing these in good ol 4th BDE, 25th Infantry Division. They are now 2D Brigade of the 11th Airborne Division. I Remember years gone by getting issued the old black follower USGI mags. They made the improvement to the anti-tilt green follower. Then they improved it with tan anti-tilt follower. Even during Iraq black follower were still out there. U.S Army came out with an order that those magazines be thrown away. ![[Linked Image]](https://www.24hourcampfire.com/ubbthreads/gallery/80/medium/195572.jpeg) ![[Linked Image]](https://www.24hourcampfire.com/ubbthreads/gallery/80/medium/195573.jpeg)

Then STFU. The rest of your statement is superflous bullshit with no real bearing on this discussion other than to massage your own ego. Suckin' on my titties like you wanted me.
