    I'm looking at getting extra mags for my rifle and pistol.
    Has anyone any first hand experience using Magpul's PMAG. Quality, ease of use compared to origional factory mags.

    Excellent bit of kit, have used them in my AR and Glock for years.
    Bit hard to source here in Europe as they are an ITAR controlled item and won't export directly from the US .Brownells Germany are your best bet for such.

    If it is for an AR type MSR.You could try Oberland in Germany, they make a derivative that's just as good.

    Highly recommend them too, uber reliable.

    Never forget, the end goal is zero firearms of any type.

    Virtually impossible to get in plus ten shot capacity in the EU anymore. No one will sell them or ship within the EU ...Its ten or nothing:(
