In 2007 I took a carbine class from Pat Rogers.
Prior to the class I had sorted out all the AR magazines I had accumulated since 1977. The 20 rounders and the 30 round mags from Adventure Line Mfg. are all sorted in a box and I haven't done anything with them yet. I took all the Colt & Parsons Precision 30 round mag bodies I had and put Mag Pul anti-tilt followers and Mag Pul loop things on the floorplates. In 9 of magazines, I installed red springs from Specialized Armament Warehouse (SAW) which reduce the capacity to 28 rounds. (As I only load 27 rounds in a 30 round mag, to make tac reloads easier, that wasn't a big deal)
All the magpul accessories I ordered from Paul Buffoni at Bravo Company. (Paul's prices are good and he ships via USPS Priority Mail which I prefer over UPS & Fed Ex -- I work the midnight shift and I'm never awake when the delivery driver comes, but the US Mail always finds me)(www.bravocompanyusa.com)
I have a couple of Brownell's magazines and they seem to work fine, but they haven't been run very hard and I haven't had them long.
At work we have some GI magazines from D&H (which is a local company) and they seem to be okay as well.
I have half a dozen PMags that I've had for only a few months. I think they're wonderful but I haven't used them as long as many people on this forum.
I don't have any experience with the Lancer Magazines.
