New MAG|Couplers™

[essjay]

I took a carbine course recently, and a guy was using these. I noticed that he'd consistently drop the mag and reload a fresh one, rather than flipping it over. I asked him why, and he said that it was simply because he kept forgetting that he had the additional rounds available. Definitely would take some extra training to get used to it, I think.

Anyway, the main thing that I noticed is that if you're prone and using the magazine as a monopod (we did this when confirming zero at the start of the course), you're going to wearing away at the feed lips, moving the bullets around, and potentially forcing soil into the magazine. Might be worth it to have some kind of quick-release dust cover to prevent that from happening.

That looks like the kind of product that would get you jail time in California, like most everything else gun related in this state

Can't tell if serious... It joins together two ten round magazines via the baseplate, not increasing the capacity of the individual mags.

PMags come with dust covers.
Connecting 2 10 round magazines with one base plate is perfectly legal. You do not increase the capacity of the magazine, you increase the number of magazines attached to the rifle.

Interested in the 308 version. Picked up and received a 3 pack. Awesome product and idea! Looking forward to trying it out.

I can't imagine that putting 2 10 round mags together doesn't violate our silly laws here in CA. I don't want to be the test case.

Great idea though. Theoretically, how many mags can I stitch together this way?

3-mag couplers have been available for a long time for the 10-22 and they have never created any drama.

Likewise the "jungle clips" that connect multiple 20 and 30rd bodies.



DOJ is okay with the KSG shotgun because you have to manually switch tubes. They are not okay with the RDS because it automatically alternates between tubes.

Very serious. This is California we are talking about here. I'm paranoid, not worth the risk to me personally. I like the idea, I think it's cool. But I'm not taking any chances.

Even if you beat the rap, you won't beat the ride.

This goes beyond paranoia. Two 10 round magazines coupled together not a continuous one body that would make it 20 round.
After you empty the first 10 round magazine you eject it then load the other end.

nice job..


Jeff ..if you are scared of this you should not even use an ar in public. That way you will be ultimate risk free

Interesting, your coupler is only for pmags, while glockmans is only for usgi. Glockman's can couple 4 mags, but yours is probably lighter weight.

Can a normal mag coupler be used to link two sets of your mags together?

Why stop there?

No reason to be paranoid in this case, numerous companies have been making similar products for years and I have seen plenty at the range. The new regs even specifically say two magazines coupled together don't make it a "large" capacity magazine. Its simply 10 magazines stuck together, the use still needs to manually change the magazine.

I have one for my 10/22 that connects three mags. It is great for kids! They shoot three, ten round mags while I load up three more ten round mags.

I'd like to see two ten round mags connected and then a coupler attached to each mag, giving you forty rounds.

meh

serves no real purpose

Actually, I think it serves one excellent purpose.

Ever try to fish a 10 round mag out of a mag pouch designed for 30 rounders?

Also, it probably makes reloads quite a bit faster.

[CMBrowning]

Its as legal as rubber banding two mags together. Two mags do not become one feeding device. Still two different feed ramps on two separate magazine.

Don't get scared by the looks, Californian.
