On the fence on whether it makes sense to upgrade my USGI mags with Magpul followers and springs. Upgrade or just buy some new ones? New OKAY mags can be had for around $13 now. Thoughts? | ||

Just because you can, doesn't mean you should |

Another alternative, 2 coworkers jumped on a PSA deal last week. 10 D&H aluminum mags with free shipping for $119.99 Not sure if that deal is still active. They also had Magpuls with free shipping if you buy 5 or more. The Enemy's gate is down. | |||

My standard operating procedure is to buy more Okay mags as often as possible. | |||

Years ago I used to upgrade some of my USGI mags. These days it does not make sense to me to do so when you can get such good quality new AR mags for 12$ - 15$. Those AR OKAY SureFeed and SureFeed E2 are outstanding mags. The Palmetto State Armory Made by D&H are also well done. | |||

If you're looking for new, Brownells has the following: Magpul GEN M3, 10-pack, $131.99 before shipping, use code: PTT https://www.brownells.com/maga...34-75487-120832.aspx Lancer, 10-pack, $136.99 before shipping, use code TAG: https://www.brownells.com/maga...95-95205-191815.aspx Shipping appears to be $6.95 - flat rate? ...let him who has no sword sell his robe and buy one.

Banned for showing his ass |
The PSA deal is still good with free shipping ... just now placed an order. | |||

That rug really tied the room together. |
I upgraded all my green and/or black follower mags with Magpul followers. I think it was worth the cost, probably $2 per mag back when I did it. ______________________________________________________ Often times a very small man can cast a very large shadow | |||

At least at this point 30 rounders are cheap and plentiful. I don’t see the sense in rebuilding or upgrading older magazines Years ago when I lived in a ban state where you could only have pre 1984 mags, rebuilding what you had since you couldn’t get new ones made sense of course. | |||

You're going to feel a little pressure... |
Ditto for me. I never bothered with the springs but I did a ton of follower swaps. Bruce "The designer of the gun had clearly not been instructed to beat about the bush. 'Make it evil,' he'd been told. 'Make it totally clear that this gun has a right end and a wrong end. Make it totally clear to anyone standing at the wrong end that things are going badly for them. If that means sticking all sort of spikes and prongs and blackened bits all over it then so be it. This is not a gun for hanging over the fireplace or sticking in the umbrella stand, it is a gun for going out and making people miserable with." -Douglas Adams “It is just as difficult and dangerous to try to free a people that wants to remain servile as it is to try to enslave a people that wants to remain free." -Niccolo Machiavelli The trouble with fighting for human freedom is that one spends most of one's time defending scoundrels. For it is against scoundrels that oppressive laws are first aimed, and oppression must be stopped at the beginning if it is to be stopped at all. -Mencken | |||
