I thought that I heard they were having follower problems.

Why do AK mags have to be shaped like bananas?

For the way that the boolits are shaped. Not nearly as square as 5.56.

The only negative thing about the ak has now been remedied, glad I got in when saigas were only $300.

A solution to a problem that doesn't exist. AK mags are usually pretty darn good.

Steel and aluminum AR mags (with upgraded followers and springs) are pretty darn good too. The future is in polymer technology for weight savings and durability. Magpul is the industry leader in polymer magazines and decided to get in on the action. I agree that they are not necessary, but how much stuff that you have bought in the last few months is really necessary?

Because the rounds have a very steep taper.

I think this will be a good product for Magpul. I bet the plastic will be better quality and it will probably weigh less than other AK mags.

Why would they release the magazines for the 74 when it's not nearly as popular? I'm sure this will be the next step, but the 47 has to be first.

Magpul is also throwing out their new 1911 grips that look pretty sweet.

I bet down the road they'd release a lightweight M1A magazine. On a bigass 308 rifle, any weight savings would be a huge step in the right direction.

Did Magpul ever announce what state they are moving to? Seems like we would have heard by now.
