GTG or not? anybody with first hand experience?
somehow I can find them cheaper than Pmags here in EU but I can not find any info on them.

thanks

I am a mag whore, but so far at least I’ve not tried these…

I’ve put quite a few rounds through them and I like them. With the sample of 4 that I’ve had a chance to use I had no issues. I personally prefer them above the hex mags and so far they have ran with the Lancers and Magpuls.

my buddy has a few, and I like some of the stuff I see from MFT, but Pmags and Lancer are all I pretty much run, if it ain’t broke don’t fix it kind of thing

No experience with them. Only GI (2) and Pmags (12+). I feel no need to try anything else when I have 100% reliability.

Thanks,
I’ve ordered three and will report back as soon as I get them.
My experience is limited to USGI and Pmags but since Pmags are getting harder to find here and the USGI are not cheaper than other mags I don’t mind trying something new.

I didn’t pay attention to where you are. facepalm

Let us know how they work. :slight_smile:

They were giving some MFT magazines away at Shot Show this year. I haven’t opened mine up to try yet.

So, I received my mags last Friday.
The mags are really well made, the texture on the side is a nice touch… Feels like a DIY stippling that has been sanded.
I don’t have a gen3 pmag to compare but these MFT are extremely lightweight:
112g colt USGI
136g gen2 pmag
115g MFT

The mag is pretty slim as well (25mm)… again I don’t have a gen3 pmag on hand but I quite sure they’re similar.
One little detail I’ve noticed is that the follower doesn’t apply any pressure on the feed lips when the mag is empty because a inner tab prevent the follower to get in contact with the feed lips.
All the mags dropped free from my 3x colt lowers.
Also ran 200rds without a single malfunction.

Cheers
F.

I got one from Shot Show this year. My buddy then proceeded to beat the crap out of it while at home and at the range. Dropping it from different heights kicking it down the street, ran it over with a car (LX 430), left it in the mud, stabbed it with a knife a couple of times. Basically he was trying to make it fail. Used it yesterday fed all rounds no hiccups… take what you will from that…
