Is it true that colored PMAGs aren't as strong as black ones? Is that why there are no colored M3s?

I'm kinda surprised about the mags. The shop I work at twice as many mags in fde as black. Not surprised with the DC of foliage green.

View Quote Polymer physical proprieties would be tested and confirmed by the manufacturer ( custom compounder)before being shipped to Magpul. Colors including black are added along with the resin, fillers, additives and elastomers before it is extruded into pellets and gives a more uniform appearance. Black is cheaper to produce cost wise for the compounder and cheaper for Magpul as well. Less clear resin purge between color changes ( which can take a lot) which results in more uptime for the manufacturer's extruders and magpuls injection molders. |

I usually buy FG and FDE when I can as those colors work best in my AO. FG has that kind of "dusty" sage color that is all over the western United States.

DAMN i just panic order 10 FDE 30 round M2 MOE pmags and will pick up some more here and there over the summer along with Foliage green and OD. What about furnature in FDE? Im wanting another UBR stock in FDE among other things. |

THE ONLY THING THEY'RE TAKING COLORS AWAY FROM IS MAGAZINES.
EVERYTHING ELSE THAT IS AVAILABLE IN COLOR WILL STILL BE AVAILABLE IN COLOR. GRIPS, STOCKS, HANDGUARDS, RAIL PANELS, ETC. STEALTH GRAY IS REPLACING FOLIAGE GREEN. FOLIAGE GREEN IS BEING PHASED OUT ACROSS THE BOARD. IS THAT UNDERSTOOD? |

i wouldn't be nearly as disappointed if they were discontinuing od and foliage green and keeping black and fde. foliage blows for anything besides rit dye or camouflaging yourself in a gravel pit or grandmas ugly couch.

Who has the best deals on FDE PMAGs?
PM me if it's below MAP. |

Really! Colored mags going out. I vote disappointed.
All I have right now is black PMAGs so guess if I want to complete the MOE FDE build I've been dreaming up, I'll need to buy up a few FDE mags. |

I grabbed 6 more at that price. Probably can find some on sale if you look harder, but that was good enough for me considering the quantity. |

Probably can find some on sale if you look harder, but that was good enough for me considering the quantity. And that, my friend, is a sure indicator of price control, i.e. MAP. http://consumerist.com/2007/09/26/what-is-minimum-advertised-price/ Minimum Advertised Price is an agreement between suppliers and retailers stipulating the lowest price an item is allowed to be advertised at. If you’ve ever tried to shop around and keep nosing up against the same number, you may have just discovered that good’s MAP. This is why sometimes you see signs that say "price too low to advertise!” Or why when shopping online, sometimes the price doesn’t show up until further in the transaction process. Retailers can incur sizable fines and/or penalties from their suppliers for violating MAP contracts. ETA: I'm not saying that retail price maintenance is always a bad thing... retailers need to be able to stay in business. But, sometimes the pricing levels set really do screw the customer, e.g. Galco (in my opinion). Rumor has it that Aguila has jacked up the price of their ammo by implementing MAP to make their brand "high class". Because when you think "Mexican ammo", you should think "high class". |

Didn't Magpul claim that the reason for black only M3's was b/c they
were trying to meet demand in the post-Sandy Hook craze? I guess it doesn't matter any more. |
|
A big thing everyone is forgetting, Magpul doesn't release info on new products.
I wouldn't be surprised to see announcements about colored M3 mags by the end of the year... But stating so now would be breaking their policy. And giving the heads up that they are canceling certain colors in their product line, is for our benefit... You'll have plenty of time to stock up, so when they're gone, it's your own fault. |

Quoted: This thread has forced me to do an inventory on all my mags - easier said than done View Quote yeah, I just skipped that part and ordered what I could. I have several ARs and want a Tavor. I can always use more AR mags. I still have some NIW gen 1 PMAGs. Call it wasted money if you want, but I wasn't sweating as much as some when the dems had a bill for a federal ban on "high caps". I also have 2500 Mini Mags and about 1000-1500 rounds of other bulk .22LR, all of which was bought when .22LR was plenty. Hell, I'm sitting on an unfired SEBR AR-15. Call it what you want. I call it preparation. |

Yeah, I think that's about right... 25x100rd boxes of mini mags, and a bunch of other stuff. Would I like to have more? Sure. Am I going to complain, when other people have none? Nope. The shortages are starting to get better. By time I get through what I have, I'm guessing I'll be able to refill. I was thinking about installing a Slide Fire on my M&P 15-22, but obviously that wouldn't be a good idea right now. |

Hopefully Magpul will come around and make some FDE Gen 3's, since Gen 3's drop free in Tavors. A Tavor is high on my want list, in FDE of course.
