| Worth buying??? |
|
I have a .223 one and a 9mm one. I use the 9mm one. I used the .223 one once. I obviously thought they were worth buying mainly just because I got some satisfaction in knowing that some liberal would piss his pants if he knew about it. I feel like this is the last hurrah for stuff like this and am getting while the getting is good. |
![]() Excelent reason for buying one! You may find other reasons to use though. We are seeing them quite a bit in 3 gun competition in the open division. Also, they are great for laying down suppressing fire when a true LMG is not available. God forbid "they" do pass a ban, but it will double in value overnight. Here is a good look at one from the back. This is in one of our full auto SDI Commandos. They will drain a Beta Mag without so much as hickup. ![]() TalonArms.com |

I don't know how common plinking at junk is anymore with all the PC and environmental stuff going on, but......... I used to live in a small town about 70 miles from here in rural Nevada. Outside of town is a designated shooting area where a bunch of losers dump junk. The actual dump is closer, but they obviously don't understand that. So, I still drive out there and shoot up all this junk. Appliances, cars, boats, trash, microwaves, computers, TVs etc. Amazingly, a lot of this stuff is simply shot into dust over time. There was a boat there that just disintegrated over a year or two of people shooting it. When shooting there, I walk around with a beta mag shooting targets of opportunity. I don't have to walk back to the truck very often. |

You can keep them loaded without any harm and to me this is the best SHTF mag to own. You put that in the rifle and then carry what else you can. Hope that never happens but it would sure make a difference in not having to do all those mag changes. Plus I don't see a ban passing that prohibits selling grandfathered stuff if it does than so be, I'll have mine even if you don't. |

In the latest issue of SGN, there is an excellent article about all drum type magazines and how bad they are. As an aside, my experience has been somewhat positive but the C-mag does need to be handled with care and needs to be dry lubed frequently. I'd stick with GI 30rnders with Mag pull followers and upgraded springs. |
