Magpul PMAG

[chronic]

So I have been checking out the dark earth PMAGs, both the regular and the "Green Labels"

They are both "Dark Earth" but they seem to be different colours. I emailed ehobby but i just got dead air...

Can anyone explain the difference?

The green labels are made out of a shit plastic and should be avoided.

The real Magpul PTS Pmags are INCREDIBLE... I highly recommend them.

Yea, I hear you. I saw this video:
YouTube - YouTube - Magpul PTS PMAG Testing in Thailand

but more importantly, are they different colours :P

There have been many fixes/changes to each the 120 pmags and green label mags. I do believe one of the changes was the slight change to the colour tone specifically on the DE mags - though I can't be 100% sure of that.

What I can tell you is that because the green label mags are made of abs plastic, they have a very unattractive glossy surface.

Has anyone bought any green labels from ehobbyasia?

It's too bad the regular PMAGs only come in stupid midcap format. You'd think the good mag ("that your like will depend on in a big milsim game" to paraphrase that silly comparison video) would be more milsim/realcap/locap oriented.

You could just load 30 bbs in each mag :P

STAR made a locap PMAG, why couldn't Magpul? For the price they charge I shouldn't have to deal with annoying workarounds.

i suppose if you really cared you could buy both the STAR 30 rounders and the magpul midcaps and switch the internals :P

[Cuddles]

True, true. It does seem a little strange as they do carry a hi cap. Maybe they are just a little slow with things.

Been waiting on that darn masada they have been promising

I have 2 of the Chinese clone PMAG hi-cap, they are solid and nothing wrong with them?

I heard that they sometimes fit too snugly into the receiver. did you have any issues?

The reason people want the top end P-mags is becuase the shells are made out of the same material as on the real P-mags, making them virtually indestructable.

well the china clones cant be all that bad. i mean from the video i posted, a car drove over them. the mags survived, but were non-functional.
