Do a search and you will see very good reviews.

We just saw Lancer at SHOT and the 20 round and 48 round mags they are coming out with look very sexy. They are testing them extensively so they will be good to go before release.

I have over 30 GI mags.
A few windowed P-mags and a few solid.
A 20 round P mag.

And one Lancer Mag.

The Lancer is the first one I reach for...

I need more.

O and I won't be buying more P-Mags.

I hope Lancer releases some photos soon because they really did a nice job putting the two new mags together. Strictly based on appearance ( I do not approve of this as the only qualification for a duty ready mag ), they were the best looking mags at SHOT.

Ran test on the Lancer L5 mag droped top and bottom from 5 feet loaded one round dropped out on drop test. than ran over it a few times than tasted the mag fuction.
no feed lip damage. only sratches on body after running over it worked fine..Ilove these mags. If I wouldn't have so many mags I'd buy more! Good Job LANCER!!!!

We did all of our drop testing at 8' last year with the T&E mags prior to selling them. After doing all the drop tests side by side with USGI, H&K, Pmag and Lancer, we no longer sell metal mags. Poly mags survive much better.

I have a 48 rounder for T&E and it has run perfectly. I've been running the 30's for quite some time and am very pleased.

A friend of mine has close to a thousand rounds through his 48 rounder and has had zero malfuntions. Some of those rounds were at this year's Fort Benning Three Gun Challenge.

When you get a chance, can you post a pic of the 48rd in the gun and also beside a 30rd?  I am curious as to how it looks, its OAL and your thoughts on the balance.

Why 48 rounds? Why not 50?

I'll post pics as soon as I can get to my camera.

The balance is perfect on my 3-gun setup. 16" fluted Wilson barrel. JP VTAC FF tube. Magpul UBR and a Leupy 1.5-5 on an LT mount.

I do not like them, because when loaded with 30rds and bolt closed they will not seat.

Here are some pics. I'm not so hot with a camera.....

I don't have that problem either.  No harder to seat than a PMag.
