Are those Magcinch's any good? The Device that connects 2 30rd Mags together from Buffer Tech? It appears the other Mag on the Side could become Damaged, or filled with Dirt, Sand, Ect. Wanted some opinions before I buy, or not to buy. Any help would be most appreciated. Thanks!

Thanks Troy for the quick reply. Those were pretty much my thoughts as well, though I haven't read much about them in general.

They also never stay in the same postion inside the coupler after a few mag insertions. I prefer a buttstock mag pouch as a patrol officer. We can't carry spare rifle ammo on our person easily. But a buttstock mag pouch allows you to have another reload on the rifle.

i have had a similar problem w/ my top round moving forward under recoil.  i recently replaced the spring w/ a wolf spring.  we'll see if that helps.  BTW it takes quite a few rounds to start IME.

at work, we have the h&k coupler for our mp5s.  they work fine.  absolutely no problem, and they are the fastest mag change i've used.  

they are an added expensive though, if you don't use a mag dump pouch, you could lose them easy if you're over in the sand box,etc.

they do add weight, bulk to the weapon.  after a day of training, and i'm tired, i just think that i need to work out more.  i don't experience a problem w/ it throwing off my balance at sub gun ranges.

at matchs w/ my AR, it works fine w/ balance out to 300 yards (the longest shots we do there).  AR mags are lighter than mp5 mags (55 grn in 556 vrs. 165 grn in .40)
