Hello All,
When we designed our mags there was a good reason we made the button on the bottom the shape of a 5.56 round (besides it looking cool). That reason is our Rapid Recognition System, different colors of followers and base inserts so you can differentiate your mags with a quick glance. We are working on getting these items put up for sale. MSRP will be $6.99 for a set of 4 (4 followers + 4 base inserts). They will be available in blue, green, red, orange, yellow, black, and pink. No need to tape, paint, or otherwise mark your mags for different loads/uses. Plus, with our see through housing you will be able to see your colors from any angle! www.ETSgroup.us Below are some pics.... |

Great idea. Will we be able to buy the mags with colored followers, or just as add-ons?
|

As we speak, Magpul R&D is getting an azz chewing.
Great products from ETS. |

Does the 4 pack come with one each of the four colors or is it a 4 pack of one single color?
|
|
|
|
Neat idea. I like it. one color for shitty blasting ammo, and one color for premium self defense ammo. Nice looking work.
|
|
Any update as to when these will hit the site so we can start ordering?
|
|

Can u make a 300blk button for the bottom? That'd be awesome. Plus all the other calibers that use standard AR mags.

The colored parts kits are now up on the site for sale. Quantities on this first batch are very limited.

I like these but you should offer a multi-color pack for those of us who don't have 20 of your mags to use 5 different colored 4 packs!

I've already got plenty of mags but ordered two of yours to try, haven't used them yet and although they won't fit without trimming on my billet lower I like them. Might be tempted to order 3 more and a colored kit if there was a variety pack available, see how my twisted math works on that one?!

I think it looks pretty darn good in these pictures, but I know it will look a little bit different in real life. |

+1 on the Variety pack! But, as we speak I"m heading over to the site to order a few. YOu guys know me. Love these mags and supporting you is easy to do when you provide high quality products!
Btw, I've started a new test with the childproof mag. It's been out in the Washington rain for a few days now. Seen extremely strong wind and rain, and after it's been out for a while, I wanna beat on it some more. Weather testing and crush testing combined is what I'd like to do. Maybe I'll record it too. ETA: Damn me. Missed out on the orange. Oh well, I'll order a pack of each that's left in stock. |

You should offer something that creates a tactile difference so you can check mags in no/low light situations.

I think it looks pretty darn good in these pictures, but I know it will look a little bit different in real life. It looks great with the FDE rifle. Reminds me a bit of the HK translucent magazines. Obviously, I'm not a materials expert, but the ETS mags feel "beefier" than the HK mags. So far I've shot 300 rounds through 1 magazine, and it's been fine. Will throw so some down range later this week. |

Thanks for the feedback! And guys, just so it doesn't look like we are avoiding talking about it, we really can't speak about the lawsuit at this point because we just don't have enough info at this time. Thanks for everyone's support and kind words. It really means a lot to us... |

Received my blue and red sets of followers/bullet bottoms. Orange and green should be here Saturdayish. Also some more magazines.
AWESOME! My gf's son wants me to use different color parts on each side. I'll probably use different colors to mark different mags, however the beater mag will retain all the original parts that have been in it to see how long it'll last. I'll try to take some pictures later tonight or this weekend of them on a rifle. |

So blue, red, orange, green, yellow, black, pink, and ????? View Quote Yellow and pink sound good. Black I'm not too sure of. It'll be nice for the floor plate perhaps but I sort of like having a noticeable color on the follower. (Others opinions may vary.) Purple could be fine depending on the shade. It'll have to be way different than the pink obviously. |
