    they still don't feed right as far as I know. The back of the mag has to be supported to have the round contact the feed ramp properly. ATRS is looking at solutions as of their last update, but I don't believe we have heard anything more than that.

    I've got a couple, sfrc has them in stock I believe. Haven't noticed any issues with them but I haven't got many rounds through them yet.

    Atrs is saying they aren't functioning any better than some of the other brands.. xcrm pistol mags are still the best.
    I'm going to attempt to mod a couple mags, just waiting on materials

    Ya i picked a few up. Im getting a bit pissed about this mag issue. Honestly, i have xcrm mags. Sure they fit the bill but really i was hoping for pmags. They need to find a way to get magpul to make a few runs of gen 2. Pre-order or something.

    So, i have yet another couple hundred bucks into mags that may or may not work. When i jumped on board the MH train i knew there would be issues to iron out, but this one is a major that i never saw coming. Sure i know what people will say, be patient, at least you have yours and so on, but it doesnt mean much to me.

    I apologize, im just ranting openly about something that has had me frustrated for months now.

    You have every right to be upset, its an expensive investment that made claims of a non restricted 308 that can use pmags, ive already lost money by selling my gen 3 pmags at a loss. I jumped the gun and started buying stuff for my mh even thou im on run 3....Atrs seem like great people, im willing to bet once they figure out the mag issue they will be willing to update the mh's they already shipped out free of charge.

    If you think you are frustrated, what about us?
    We are working on a solution, which includes having our own mags made.
    We too did not see Magpul changing their design that we worked around and completely dropping their at the time current (gen 2) mag line.
    The IMI mag sample worked great so we thought we had a winner, spent MANY thousands of dollars on getting a large order of IMI mags in, and the production mags do not work as well as would like.
    So far just in the mag debacle it has cost me over $100K.

    What we KNOW at this time.
    ASC mags for the XCR-M work great if loaded to 4 rounds.
    ASC 10 round pistol mags for the XCR-M work flawlessly
    MOST Gen 2 Pmags work flawlessly.
    IMI mags work well IF THE MAG IS SUPPORTED, which is less than ideal and we are working on a solution as we have a TON of these mags in inventory and they seem like a real good mag.

    We are working on a 10 round mag of our own that WILL work. But this may take a few months still.

    Magpul Gen 3s and and M118LR mags do NOT work at all.
