WOW, Great Price

Thanks, Bro

Good price, good product. It seems that the price of new 30 rounders is dropping. Last week I ordered some new OKAY 30 rounders over at Arfcom for $11.00.

Well, it's about time wouldn't you say? The AWB has been dead for a year now. I'm lovin it! We just can't get complacent like we all did 11 years ago...

I wasn't gonna get an AR-10 because mags were so pricey, but since the ban ended, AR-10 mags are much cheaper (still expensive, but not nearly as bad).

Tapco recently had them on sale for $11ea. When funds allow I'm gonna pick up another ten on sale.

Well this time around I will not have a lack of high capacity mags for any firearm I own. Get them while you can.

What's the coating on them like? I made the mistake of buying some that had been poorly refinished, the finish would rub off like graphte when I handled them.

That is a good deal but for $12 you can get the Teflon coated ones. I'm not sure how much better the Teflon holds up but the mil-spec dry-film coating is pretty fragile.

I just ordered some 30rd D&H w/magpul orange followers for $14 from www.talonarms.com They are D&H but have a DSG floorplate on them. I think you have to buy 10 or more to get that price.

These are teflon, which is better than the standard USGI finish. These are essentially the best aluminum mags money can buy.

These are D&H, essentially LaBelle mags.

I just got my $11 tapco teflon coated mags. good times!:cool:

I guess I'm confused. I thought that the dry-film was different than the Teflon. The link you posted says only "dry-film", nothing about Teflon.

Elsewhere on the site they list a grey Teflon mag but are sold out.

I would never argue with the resident ar15 guru but I'm almost positive that the link you posted is for the older non-Teflon finish.

Thanks Gorelicks.

Do you recommend the enhanced Anti-tilt Follower also?

And what's the diff between the Ranger Plate vs the magpul? Is the Ranger Plate a lot better?

You might be right... Still a good price on good mags though.

I don't care for the ranger plate or regular magpuls. As far as the magpul followers goes, I think they are overrated. I've never had an issue with the green followers.

D&H mags with the teflon finish are the best available, like gorelicks said. Teflon holds up a whole lot better than the rest of the usgi mags.

The magpuls and ranger plates(glorified magpul) are good for fishing mags out of a pouch, other than that they don't serve any purpose. Ditto on the followers, just more gucci gear designed to seperate you from your money.

Gore good deal thanks, Switch you are right on about seperating you from your money...

I beg to differ; if you hit the mag release and dump a mag out of the weapon over a hard surface (concrete, rocks, etc.) these will also protect the mag's base from being damaged on impact. They can also protect your hand during high-speed reloads or tap/rack drills.

How do these mags compare to the D&H magazines? (http://www.glocktalk.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=440223)

Are the Tapco mags better quality?

Thanks.

Yes, the ones from Tapco are a better deal because they are teflon finished (that is, assuming shipping is the same).

Just ignore this thread... I suck... http://www.ar15.com/images/smilies/icon_smile_dissapprove.gif

Thanks Gorelicks.

I was going to buy the ones you recommended because I was so depressed at missing out the Tapco mags.

I'm glad the Tapco mags are back at $11, but I really am glad you posted your good buy also. ;c ;c

[RMTactical]

It's all good. I would personally prefer the teflon coated mags, but the ones I posted would actually work just as good. So what if the finish is more likely to come off...

I have a few that have some pretty bad wear (picked them up during the ban), but they function 100%. Plus, I have even refinished a few. They turned out real nice.

I bought a few of the teflon coated mags from dsgarms (they were black coated instead of grey though), but I also bought 20 from bravocompany at about $13 a pop (with shipping included).

Tapco has the best price I've ever seen on the teflon ones.
