Looks like they're really pumping out the new gear this year. I like the new XTM panels and hand stop kit.

Meh...

Looks like Magpul isn't the idea factory it once was now that Travis and Chris are gone.

doesn't seem that impressive

I'm not a huge Magpul fan myself, but I will say that when you have a good product that lots of people already buy, it's much better to refine than it is to reinvent. The mags needed tweaking to become useful in other firearms, so they did that.

As for their so called "Theory based" products, I don't really care about that stuff since I don't hold my gun like those guys do anyway.

I was hoping to see some newer stocks besides the STR and the ACS-L. I'll end up buying anyways I bet.

I like the the new M3 mags fit the SCAR..

[bruss01]

I didn't see PMags in x39 or any other caliber offering, seems like that would be a no-brainer. Waiting here, but not getting my hopes up any time soon.

Mags look like the Lancer AWM.

They already had the emag, I guess the new pmag is replacing both?

[dieselpower]

I feel Magpul is "upgrading" the reliability out of their gear....and Name. They are becoming more and more like CAA to me. A cheap copy of a great idea.

[Akers]

I don't feel impressed for some reason. I have found myself looking for alternatives.

Which is a good idea since it sucks to own Pmags that won't work right in some rifles like a SCAR.

But you could have been using emags the entire time instead.

Actually even the e-mags do work in the SCAR but can still chew up the bolt and bolt release unless you dremel them a bit.

But it does suck that the HK MR556 only works with E-mags, and other euro riffles have the same problem unless you are running a AR-15 or ACR.

[John Browning]

I hope that and the 870 stock isn't it. That is pretty uninteresting.
