I am interested in acquiring one of these gadgets but was wondering from experience which type/make is the preferred?

Thanks

With G-3 mags, an empty shell casing and some electical tape worked fine in the army for me.

But don't listen to me, I'm one of those idiots who uses a couple a nickles' worth of flat shoelace instead of buying "magpul ranger plates" too. I'm a cheap bastard.

I used to use/sell the Buffer Tech Mag Cinch but after the SHOT show, I found something so much better, it's amazing. I'll post pictures and info when I get them in. Look for it on the EE and my website.

if you go with one, no matter the make, prepare to practice a lot with it

Experienced tac-shooters can often pull a traditional mag change in much less time than a duelie changer can.

mag cinchs seem like a good idea but after you try it it becomes more of a PITA than it is helpful. I would rather just keep my mags in a chest pouch and reload from there. It really doesn't take much longer if longer at all.

IMO the better one is from Buffer Tech

Very true, however my only use for them is to have two magazines ON the gun.

So the SHOT show actually served a purpose besides providing up with lots of cool pics to look at.
