Hey guys,

I got some mags that I want to rebuild\refinish. I know the green followers work just fine but thought about trying some of these. Have any of you used some of these and are willing to comment on them?

Just curious if they do offer any noticeable improvement or if they're just a complete waste of money?

Thanks

most to all are great results.

That about sums it up.  The green followers just don't compare.  With the Magpul's in you just can't get the follower to screw up in the mag, no matter how you try to do it.

In all my mags too.


You can get by on green followers, but if you want THE most reliable, Magpul is the way to go.

Do they reduce the mag capacity at all?  I still have not tried them yet.

You might experience a 3% reduction in capacity.

That one round loss can really fuck up the bump firing experience.


But then again, thats not what they were designed for.
