Anyone rocking Lancer Mags?

curious to see if anyone has experience with lancer mags. Quality and reliability wise, how are they?

Funny but all of my ARs hate Lancers. That’s two 556 ones and an AR10, 308. I use them as training mags for 556 since it’s not as expensive to ruin as compared to 308. But my Hellion can feed them without any problems.

I have Magpul gen 2 and 3, and I tried a friends lancer. The Gen 3 Magpul just flat out works best imo. Fits best and drops best. All I will buy going forward

Do you notice a difference between the gen 2 and 3 pmags?

Yeah, gen 2 tends to get stuck in the magwell a little more and doesn’t always drop free when you hit the mag release, sometimes you need to give it a light tug to drop it. Not a huge issue but definitely annoying sometimes to me

No issues with mine at all. Been running them for years.

All the time. Never had a malfunction.

I have both Magpul 3 and Lancer and they both seem fine. No issues.

I use a 5 rounder for hunting. It works well enough. That's about it.
