    Magpul PMAG availability?

    OK, my order finally came in. PMAGs and Lancers. And my rails. Tee hee! OK, first the pictures. Now, impressions. The Lancer is a perfectly OK mag. It loads up just fine and feeds better than the C Products USGI mag that my AR came with. It's a good fit and sits solidly in the magazine...

    Magpul PMAG availability?

    I just got three Lances from Cheaper than Dirt last night. They fit and feed far better that my stock C Products aluminum mags. They seem pretty durable and should be just fine for the range, though I wouldn't want to take them into combat. Then again, I'm in finance and don't expect to find...

    Magpul PMAG availability?

    Just got off the phone with Firequest. The ones I ordered the other day are in fact in stock and will be shipping this week. I did pay a bit more than I would have liked ($71 for three pmags shipped, no window) but for the extra $20 I spent to get these I don't have to spend my time on the phone...

    Magpul PMAG availability?

    Funny thing is that I got an email for Midway USA this morning at 8:45 eastern indicating that they were in stock. I went there IMMEDIATELY, but they were already sold out. Damned things are harder to get than a Tickle Me Elmo on Christmas day. I'll keep trying. I have backorders in at 7...

    Magpul PMAG availability?

    Thanks, all. Mike, assuming that I am not able to find the Magpul pmags what would you consider to be a good duty-use, long-term mag? The mag that Stag packed in is a very strange fit. The rounds scrape and scratch on the way in and catch on the lip of the case when I push them out of the mag...

    Magpul PMAG availability?

    Thanks. I ordered three from Alamo Tactical. They didn't indicate that they are out of stock, but I'm skeptical. I'll let you all know.

    Thanks. Any other polymer mag worth looking at?

    Magpul PMAG availability?

    I'm trying to get my hands on two or three Magpul Maglevel 30 round mags, but everybody seems to be out of stock. Those available for sale by individuals are going for almost twice the list price. Any reason for the scarcity? The Lancer polymer translucent mags seem to be plentiful. Are they...

    Safety Detent Spring for AR-15

    I gave the pen spring a shot but it was too big (diameter). But the spring from a Bic lighter works just fine! It's a lot less robust, a bit loose, but it works. Perhaps it was just the type of pen I tried to use. Either way, thanks for the help!

    Safety Detent Spring for AR-15

    Thanks, all. Yes, KW, I did learn that the hard way. 30 minutes to remove the crushed, twisted mass from the grip screw shaft and I won't be making that mistake again. Anyway, I just spent like 3 hours looking for the best deal. Over like $8.00. I bit the bullet and ordered it from Brownell's...

    Safety Detent Spring for AR-15

    Hey, all. I was putting some Hogue grips on my new AR-15 and lost the safety detent spring. Well, I didn't lose it. It just popped out and I figured it came from the hole where the grip screw drops in so I shoved it in there and tightened down the bolt. Results were... not encouraging. Anywho...

    New Member? Introduce yourself here (just intros, questions get answered elsewhere)

    Hey, All. I've learned a lot for the posts here and decided it was time to join. Thought I'd introduce myself. I started shooting .22s at summer camp when I was about 8 but my family was never very gun friendly. I recently got back into shooting and bought myself a Sig P225 and just today picked...
