20rd. AR mag storage Login/Join

I’m reorganizing things and find myself wanting a dedicated storage solution for my 20rd. AR mags. Everything I can find on the market is made for 30s and many of those just won’t work with 20s.

Basically looking for long-term storage for bulk empties and something more like a go-bag for half a dozen or more loaded ones.

Could just be that my Google-fu sucks right now, but it usually doesn’t. So… any suggestions other than keeping them neatly stacked in a .50 cal ammo can?

TIA.

This might also work. Tall enough for 30s but the internal dividers may be short enough for 20s.

The old USGI bandoleers are good for aluminum 20 rounders. However, you have to check them, there is stitching that can be removed that make them deep enough for 30 rounders, that would cause the 20 to drop too low.

This is exactly what I was looking for.

I have one for the 30 round mags, it’s definitely a quality product. The downside is they are never in stock it seems. I ended finding one on eBay! Good luck!!

Over the years I’ve been lucky enough to get olongapo bandoleers for 20 round 308 and 30 round AR. It’s a one man shop and h his quality is great but man that dude is always out of stock.

I ended up getting cheap GI bandoleers and some Ace Case ones. Not perfect but good enough for range use and can hand off a bag of mags to somebody.

Maybe M14/G3/HK91 mag carriers will work?

Olongapo Outfitters is vaporware. Great, quality stuff. Good luck ever being able to actually order something. Would love to have one of the grab and go for 30 rounders

Pretty much. I used a few different Olongapo rigs at work a decade or more ago as active shooter response kits, before hard plate carriers became common. Fantastic quality stuff. But even back then, you basically had to luck out and find it used on the secondary market, since the OO store itself was perpetually Out Of Stock on everything.

about 32 (IIRC) GI type (as on Aluminum) 20 round mags will fit nicely in a 50 cal ammo can,

Ended up grabbing several of these molle 6 compartment GI pouches a while back. Shop around, should be priced well under $10 per. Easy enough to store some mags and be able to hand off to anyone that needs mags.

Also shop around a Hungarian 20 round AK mag tanker pouch. Fits 20 round AK mags, should work with 20 AR.

Maybe, or maybe not.

Due to the sharper taper of 7.69x39 cases, AK mags are significantly more curved than AR mags. Especially 20 round AR mags, many of which are basically straight.
