[ARCHIVED THREAD] - 40 Round Magazine??

I saw a picture in the Equipment Exchange of a 40 Round Magazine. Does anyone know anything about them? Who makes them? Quality? In-stock? etc?

Thanks

About the only 40 round I'd trust is made by STERLING in England for the AR80 methinks. They're old mags but the ones I have function flawlessly.

Don't quote me, but I think DPMS has a 45rder. Don't know how it is though.

Bushmaster and CDNN sports have 40 rounders. The Bushmaster probably works decently if they sell it. The CDNN ones are steel if I recall correctly.

There are also 40 rounders by USA Mag. Stay far, far away from those.

I'd just buy a few more 30's.

The only 40-rounders I know to work are the Sterlings and the PMIs. I have a couple of PMIs that I fitted with MagPul followers, and they have never let me down. I also have a couple of DPMS 45-rounders, and so far so good with them too. For the most part, any other 40-rounders should be regarded as crap until proven otherwise.
