My P mags I got from Spearmags have not given me any issues ever Spear Mags Ltd - Quality Firearms and Accessories
got mates who swear by their magpul ones
I already looked there but they had no 30 rnd mags listed. The 20 rnd 3 pack for $150 looked good tho. But I need to buy 30s for now, for multi/3gun.Quote:

Bugger. Are you allowed to run those magpul 60 round pmags?
Pretty sure 60s are not allowed in the division I shoot.
Have been searching and the only place that has 30s that I can find is gunshitty.

gun supplies have p mags $109 gunstuff has 40 round p mags $110 and 30 round mags steel and plastic
Brownells. Magpul or Lancer. I got an MSSA parts permit in 10 days the other day, so it might be worth a go.
Might try myself. I am in no hurry.Quote:

As said above, Pmags or Lancer's never missed a beat.
My last import permit for them took ~3 weeks, and that was last month. :)
Never had a problem with Magpul.
Yup magpul I've never had an issue with, the few spear mags I've tried were quite tight in the mag well and wouldn't fall away on their own, A couple even when loaded. Pretty sure they were first gen though. Could have just been my rifle though.
no issues with spear. none have them have dropped out/mis-loaded etc
Have you looked to see if Tasman research has anything avail ? they do the Tacload 30 round mags
Will have a gander. Ta.Quote:

GunsNZ have the Troy Battle mags, I haven't used mine a lot but they run well. If I recall right they were only about $60ish.
Lancer is my preference, not that I have ever had an problem with pmags.
I have had problems with both brands of NZ made mags. One company was interested and the other didn't want to know. I consider both only good for doing malfunction training unfortunately. And when both cost vastly more than a much more proven mag can be imported by any legal user I just don't see the point in ever trying them again.
My all time favorite mag is the H&K mag, but that not plastic-I do find myself using them for anything where weight is not a big issue
Never had trouble with my Magpul but endless feed problems with the Spear mags on my Rock River Arms.
Only problem I've ever encountered with the pmags is they empty to bloody fast and take much longer to reload again.
Other than that they are slicker than fresh snot on a door knob. ( local slang I've pick up here) :)

Only polymer mags I've used are the Diemaco ones issued with C7's and Magpul PMags. I used to use steel H&K mags but started to have an occasional issue so switched to Magpul's and haven't had a problem since (the HK mags had seen a reasonable amount of use though). You can't seat the bullets out as far in the PMags as the metal mags, as the mag walls are thicker but not really an issue.
I hate to go against NZ made mags but had nothing but issues with Spears mags, feed lips were too flexi and my AR kept double feeding. I have 2 or 3 spare 30 rnd pmags still in wrapper
I have 5 PMAGs in the safe brought them but never used, I prefer metal ones HK being the best I have used.Quote:
