Does anyone actually use mag couplers?

[Neff]

Possibly looking into trying these for quick mag changes but it seems like it could be unnecessary weight. Couldn't mag changes from a pouch be just as fast?

Mall ninjas and airsofters love them. Real shooters just use duct tape.


They are really just a great way for the manufactures to make extra money from stupid idiots.

From a belt, probably not. From a vest, probably faster. The issue is what to do with the coupled mags when you use them up. Dump them on the ground, I guess...

nope.

Might be cool with a non bullet button rifle. But I prefer to have the mag fall to the ground after depressing the bullet button. Seems like it would be tough to manipulate the tool and hold the mag/rifle bullet button tool all at the same time.

If I use a standard mag release, like on a featureless build, this could shave some time on a mag change.

Mags stacked in this fashion won't fit in any of my pouches. So I would only have the first mag change at hand on the rifle.

I can see a benefit in a HD scenario. You grab your gun and the only rounds you are carrying are on or in the gun.

LOL Duct Tape! I did use the duct tape when I ran my Mini 14 in 3 gun with a wood block as a spacer!
I do use coupled 30's and 20's when I have to shoot prone at a 3 gun match.
Very stable when shooting out to 400 yard. Use the 20's on a roof prop stage or a very low port.
I also use the Arrendondo base plates with them.

duct tape

Only on my HK91 style set up, so I can look like Arnold on "Commando" ~"Matrix! Let got of Jenny!"

So, what if you could fit them on a vest without them being an issue or getting in the way? Would anyone use them?

I tape mine to where all I do is flip them to reload. It eliminates any type of spacer.

OK, I forgot about using them as "bipods" for certain senerios.

you guys have been watching too many movies

[HOGLEG]

Well now, if I'm running an AK I might just need all those rounds to hit what I'm shooting at...

[Siberian23]

My buddy bought some and after we went shooting with them he tried to sell them to me, so that should tell you something.

[TNP'R]

Thought about buying some a while back and meh.
