Ammo Armor gun magazine protector sleeves Login/Join

I ordered some of these from
www.AmmoArmor.com

Ordered them by phone from a very courteous
,outgoing, informative gentleman.

The order came promptly.

I ordered these to carry my extra mags in my pants, jackets and coat pockets ,
In hopes of preventing lint, dust or dirt from causing feeding problems .

After a month of use I thought I'd share my experience.

These sleeves are made in America, I find them reasonably priced .

I expected them to come shipped in an inexpensive zip lock baggy but they were sent in a ready for display pricey vacuum plastic hinged resealable package.

I got the black ones but they are available in other colors.

I find them very well made.
They fit my Springfield mags very snug,
two handed insertion and extraction is required.

I may very well be getting some more.

And they offer them with different manufacturer names on the side to help organize and identify what goes where.

Feel free to ask questions.


These are not" drop free "by any means.
They are on there to stay.

So for my daily carry purposes , probably won't meet my needs.

Oh they are sealed well enough to prevent debris problems ,
And there is no doubt that they offer very good mag protection against mag damage If dropped.

( Though I have not tested this)

I see these not as carry or safe queen applications, but for range bag, transportation use.

If you are throwing a dozen mags in a bag or box , these will do a great job with either loaded or empty magazine's .

I could see them being used for carrying in a range bag when you don't want to damage your mags. Are they made of rubber or hard plastic?

Don't know the technical answer to that question.
They are rigid . . Flexible
Roll Eyes

They stretch about a billionth of a nanometer to allow the mag to go in.

A neat product for a reasonable price. Could see it being useful if you're toting a dozen mags loose in your bag.

Seems like unnecessary overkill for Glock mags, but I can understand it being handy for any steel-bodied magazines...such as my $100 Laugo Alien mags...or $140 10rd 2011 magazines...

^^ It might be well to bear in mind that not all fits are exact; they're trying to make models that work for ranges of magazines where that's feasible.

Oh, and in case anyone's interested, the right sleeve for the P365 is supposed to be the A18 per their CS.

It's not a rapid-access way to carry (even if they've started selling some with belt clips); I have yet to figure out how to get a mag out of one without using two hands. OTOH, if you're keeping a gun in a bag or the console in your vehicle, it does seem to be pretty dang protective of the magazine and ammo and it's easy enough to throw a magazine in one in a pocket should that seem convenient.

Do---or do not.
There is no try.

I have these sleeves for my P229, P320, and P365. They all work very well, are easy to keep in my off-side pants pocket, keep lint out of the magazine, and combat reload from the pocket is smooth (watch the video on the website).

I'm okay with this idea. (before someone hits us with the worn out "solution in search of a problem". lol Roll Eyes ) I can see them being useful for specific, limited applications. No, not going to put them on all my mags, or on a carry mags. But I could see it on the extra loaded mag(s) I throw in my pack or bag hunting, hiking, traveling etc. (especially if you have one of those models that likes to spit the top rounds. They should be included with a gun from Kahr.) Wink

It looks like a decent product I guess but is it necessary or even important?
I have a whole box of the Magpul end clips for AR mags I never use so for me I find it hard to justify.
YMMV
