I don't even bother to correct people like that, I just say, oh really and let them keep on looking stupid.

HK mags are black.  My brother's Marine unit passed HK mags out for their weekend training.  That's the only way I'd know for someone to say that black mags are Mil-spec.

Having a discussion with someone who determines "mil-spec" by color only, instead of the Colt floor plate on your mags, would be counter-productive. Reminds me of a saying,

"Never argue with an idiot, they drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience".

Was it a guy at the range who told you that?  Was he wearing sweatpants and an M65 jacket?  Was he a former SEAL?

"OK, you found me out. I go on secret missions and they don't issue me equipment that can be traced back to us."

Or, if you're feeling cranky, "You know, light travels faster than sound. That must be why you seem so bright until you open your mouth."

Yah... they seldom notice because they are used to talking to themselves anyway...  

I crack myself up sometimes...
