Magpul PMAG M3 5.56 30RD Review
About Magpul PMAG M3 5.56 30RD
Product Details The next-generation PMAG 30 GEN M3 is a 30-round 5.56×45 NATO (.223 Remington) polymer magazine for AR15/M4 compatible weapons. Along with expanded feature set and compatibility, the GEN M3 incorporates new material technology and manufacturing processes for enhanced strength, durability, and reliability to exceed rigorous military performance specifications. While the GEN M3 is optimized for Colt-spec AR15/M4 platforms, modified internal and external geometry also permits operation with a range of additional weapons such as the HK® 416/MR556A1/M27 IAR, British SA-80, FN® SCAR™ MK 16/16S, and others. Similar to the MOE PMAG, the GEN M3 features a long-life USGI-spec stainless steel spring, four-way anti-tilt follower and constant-curve internal geometry for reliable feeding, and simple tool-less disassembly to ease cleaning. In addition, a redesigned bolt catch notch in the rear of the magazine provides increased bolt catch clearance, while an over-travel stop on the spine helps ensure the magazine will not over-insert on compatible weapons. Low profile ribs and new aggressive front and rear texture gives positive control of the GEN M3 in all environments, and a paint pen dot matrix has been added to the bottom panel of the body to allow easy marking by the end user for identification. The new, easy to disassemble flared floorplate aids extraction and handling of the magazine while providing improved drop protection, but is slightly slimmer than before for better compatibility with tight double and triple magazine pouches. An included pop-off Impact/Dust Cover can optionally be used to minimize debris intrusion and protect against potential damage to the top cartridge during storage and transit. Made in U.S.A. FEATURES Next-generation impact and crush resistant polymer construction Modified dimensions allow for wider compatibility with non Colt-spec platforms Constant-curve internal geometry for smooth feeding Anti-tilt, self-lubricating follower for increased reliability Long life USGI-spec stainless steel spring Over-travel insertion stop on the spine Ribbed gripping surface and new aggressive front and rear texture for positive magazine handling Paint pen dot matrix panels on the bottom of the body to allow for identification marking Flared floorplate aids magazine handling and disassembly yet is slim enough for use with many double and triple pouches Pop-off Impact/Dust Cover to minimize debris intrusion and for ammunition protection in storage and transit

The USGI Magazines I bought are exactly as advertised. They have an excellent coating, great springs & an anti-tilt follower. My order arrived on time. I like that there is always a personal note written on every order receipt in each package that I receive from AR-15 Discounts; I like the personal touch.!!!

I got these about a month ago and have fired somewhere in the neighborhood of 500 round with them and have had no issues with feeds or jams. I’d say the only downside of them to this point is I dropped a full mag accidentally and 2 rounds popped out of the mag. Very pleased with them and will more than likely order a few more since I carry then for certain aspects of my job.
Just what I needed

I have a good few PMAG M2s. They're my go-to magazines for my AR15. The M3 adds better grip, a stronger plate on the bottom, a dot matrix for marking the caliber, and fixed some feeding issues I'd come across with the M2. They're amazing!

Magpul makes the best magazines by far for the AR platform. I have dropped these mags before with 30 rounds in them and have never had one even fall out of ammo. I even use these religiously with my EndoMag 9mm inserts. and it feeds through my 9mm build like a breeze. Never had one dysfunctional product from Magpul.

It's a PMAG, they're the best on the market. I store mine with 28 rounds to save the spring and to ensure that I can easily load a mag with a closed bolt. I sometimes have double feeds while dry firing with dummy rounds but never with life rounds. The feed lips have never broke on me.
