No tops for P-Mags?

[stanjones]

Anybody know why Magpul quit supplying the little top/clip/cover thing with their p-mags? I like all of my older ones with the clip on top.

 

[Jakashh]

Never had to use that clip top. Just keep it attached to the bottom to not lose it.

I never saw a point in em, myself.

 

[txbikerman]

have a few but never use them

 

[itchin]

No clue. I lose them anyway.

 

[TX69]

Out of vogue

 

[hkusp1]

They quit making them because they were useless.

There's no dust in CO, so no need of a dust cover

Ive got a few in my trash can you can dig out if you want. What do you use them for?

 

[itchin]

Supposidly they keep the feed lips from tweaking during long term storage while loaded. Ive never had that problem with any ar mags.

They sell them separately now. I wish they came with them still though since I keep the mags loaded and stored. The dust cover keeps the pressure off the feed lips. Might not be a huge deal in the short term, but in the long term, it should keep the feed lips from deforming.

PMAG® ACCESSORIES - PMAG® Impact/Dust Cover ? GEN M2 MOE®, 3 Pack

all that do not want them please bring to Hicksville. I will take them off your hands for you.

seriously

The MOEs don't come with them. Kind of like the moe grips not having the cores or the moe stocks not having the friction locks. All about reducing the price point. Magpul ships the M3 with the dust covers included, buy those if you want them. I lose most of them so it isn't a big deal for me, but they have them however you want.

They are designed to push the rounds down slightly when clipped on so that the feed lips aren't holding all the tension of a fully-compressed spring with all rounds loaded. Just curious - how much are they asking for just the cover?

The link is above... roughly $1.25 a piece.

Shop I go too has them in pack of 3 on the shelves for like 3.50.

 

[Orbie]

I do use them. I can hear the ammo shifting upwards towards the feed lips when I remove the cover. Seems as if they work as intended. I've never stored loaded pmags without them so I can only assume they work. Then again, I've never been worried about storing pistol mags fully loaded...

Yup just the Gen 2's that dont come with them, gen 3's still do. I bought a couple packs at Cypress Armory the other day, 3 for like $3.
