I'm sure I know the answer, but I'm gonna ask anyway. Anybody tried these out? How were they? RTG has the black ones and the FDE for 20 a piece

Don't they have a lifetime warranty?

Please
Remember
Our
Mags
Are
Garbage

I've only come across one. It was par for the course for that company's wares. Performed just as well as an FAL Thermold mag. Both ended up ventilated by handgun rounds.

I can't believe they are still in business... guess there are enough new suckers buying mags every year... they have been garbage since before the earth cooled...

Yep.  How, in a small industry like magazines, can a company make such garbage, and stay in business while many other companies come and go?  And which actually made good products?

Did ProMag practice Voodoo and thus is immune to market forces?  Or are there enough cheap, dumb people who'll buy their trash cuz it's 3 dollars cheaper than a factory or Megar mag?

I believe they are low-key the oem for several manufacturers.
Ruger LCP magazines, I believe. They supposedly have a huge rejection rate from Ruger, but they’re cheap enough they tolerate it.

Has PROMAG ever made a reliable double stack mag?

That part. Every shop I've worked at has had ProMag products on the wall, and despite clear warnings that we won't take them back on return and the customer would have to deal with ProMag directly, we still sold them 20 to 1 against factory mags. The average gun owner is cheap, un-educated, and hates taking advice from anyone other than their friend's, sister's, ex-cop fiance that washed out of the academy on firearms.
