    This is the prep for Peacetime Garritrooper Army. Everything exactly the same no spechul mags, all MOLLE positioned to a CSM's wet dream whims. Combat Effective? we don need no stinkin combat effective, we need shiny parade things.

    I've never actually used them, I used the Issue ones but once a week took my mags apart and cleaned them and light oil the springs and had no Issues. My Buds who did use them speak very Highly of Pmags.

    Maybe TACOM will accept them if their Molded to match the reflective belt?

    No combat-ready unit ever passed inspection...

    I have like 6 PMags in the closet along with some Tango Down ones. I am not a mall ninja but I bloody well could be with my waywickedawesome loadout. I am going to stencil random numbers on them in white paint just because it looks cool too.

    Don't forget to paint them tan brown first because that's what's in style these days.

    Only reason why I painted my M-16 was the fact that it was older than me and needed a fresh coat of paint.

    This more your style?



    They even have the classic Zombie apocalypse food there too. Even more durable than MREs.

    That is what was issued for us pre-mob, those brownells....more than a few people have had problems with em too.

    Also we've had nothing official come to us saying that pmags and what not are a no-go, we've only seen the news articles about it....but that **** aint official yet for us ;d

    Exactly.... When I arrived at MISO I was virtually ordered to remove the ACU cover and paint it tan (or a variation there of). Guess what?? Nearly two years and back to the cover, the cat eye band, the rank perfectly centered. Welcome to the peacetime Army everyone, if they had their way, we'd back to wearing the LBE and Steel Pots... you know how sexy those look
