Got the mold in the machine yesterday night and popped out the first test shots. These are made on the same mold as the Rangers and use the same locking plate and stamped stainless steel plate.
Here are pics of the first two made and installed on a D&H and OKay Indust. mag   We need to do some final tweeking of the mold but should be able to run production in about a week. Colors will be Black, OD, Flat Dark Earth and maybe some others. The holes on the side are for those old fashioned guys using paracord or zip ties for pulls. Expect price of $19.95 for a 3 pack and cheaper with quantities. |

I'm lost. Can someone explain what these are for and why one would prefer them over the stock plates? I get the whole magpull thing - it has a loop you can pull on. But what the hell is this all about?

For folks that don't like to or don't need to use the pulls or ranger plates. It offers protection to the mag when you hit the mag release and let it drop free and hit the ground. |

Should have called them Magpul L196 plates, and had that imprinted on the plates themselves.

Some people don't like the standard floor plates. Some people don't like dents and dings when mags hit the ground. Some people don't like the ranger plates. So in comes lumpy, soft floor plate to cushion the mag when it hits the ground, lessens dents and dings. Also, it has holes to put rip cord or zip ties to make a poor mans mag pull if you still want the feature without the ranger plate design. It's all about the choices. headbang.gif |

For those without a use for Range Plates, or for those with webgear that wont allow them: Ease of disassembly for cleaning. Protection for the base of the magazine. |

Pardon my ignorance...somebody said these are a "soft" plate. Are these rubber? Or are they hard plastic?
I think I need one on every mag I've got. Uh oh. |

"Plate is stainless steel and over molded with pliable rubber/plastic as used in the Magpuls." |
