so what about these magpul pmags? or any polymer mags for that matter? i saw a couple guys in iraq have em, and they said they were pretty good. im looking into getting a few maybe, but also i dont know what the corps has to say about it, especially being back in the rear now. any feedback?

Good mags.  I have sent a ton to the guys over in the sand box.

Did you have any issues with standard GI mags when you were in Iraq

They are almost impossible to find now.  I got mine from Cobra Tactical (took 30 days) and got lucky and found some at PK firearms.  They sold out in less than 5 minutes.  Keep watching this forum; people will post when the elusive Pmags show up in stock somewhere.
Oh, just so you know.  30 rd Pmags hold a full 30 rounds; you don't have to download to 28 like USGI mags

Bought 25 last night off of EE.  Kinda high, but better than none at all.  I am paying the price for waiting too long, however as of May of last year I knew nothing about AR-15s.  Now I have 3, one of them in 6.8 spc, 35 magazines and 3k rounds of ammo.

Shoot mine with nothing but pmags (except for the C-products in the 6.8).  Never had a problem with mine. However, I do not shoot excessive volumes of ammo like some guys on here do, I'm saving mine for the heathen Chinee.

Maybe a case of BRD and it does not go away

3 out of 6 of my mags on my front had the feed lips on the top get bent so they wouldnt feed, i attribute this to me taking my flak off and dropping it on the ground, kinda my fault but alot of guys i know came back with the same problem. other than that i had to take my rounds out periodically and wipe em and the inside of the mag out from the sand, when i went condition 1 i had to do IA more times than id like to, but i guess thats kind of expected.

i had to let my gunner borrow some mags from me to use with his m16, for some reason his mags wouldnt lock in to the well, dont know if his mags were the problem or not.
