SHOT SHOW Recap & 10/10 CROSS MAG™ Update - January 2019

I prefer steel 10/30 pistol mags, but I recall shooting a match with coupled 10rd pistol mags and how much of an advantage it gave in reload time. I like that these mags come ready to be coupled, don't have a goofy coupler which may or may not fit, and the angle emulates a regular AR mag.

I'll be honest with you guys, I've thought these mags were gonna be vapourware for a long time, but it really looks like you're chugging along. Will look forward to buying a few when they hit market.

Will these lock into place on a closed bolt?

Affirmative. When fully loaded they insert and lock on a closed bolt. They have a reliable bolt hold open and drop freely, all of which can be clearly seen if you look closely in the mag dump videos above.

How robust is the coupling? They appear to go together easily, however will they separate really I easily? What happens if they are ejected to the ground or if they are dropped strongly and the firearm twisted during reload? Will they uncouple at an inopportune time?

There is a ramped design within the notches on each coupler. They are designed to go together easily, and require a lot more force when uncoupling. Force needs to be applied in a perfect linear, twisting motion, exactly at the joint for them to uncouple. Dropping / ejecting on the ground does not exert the needed directional motion to uncouple.

We’ve gotten good at uncoupling... thousands of times daily at Shot Show - we may make it look easy! We should have some out for third party review in the next month, I’d expect a few videos that will will review and detail the coupling feature.
 
Just "throwing this out there" but what about a "group buy" to get this party started? Looks to be a good product, well done!

You’ve been saying that these will be available “soon” since March of 2017. You’ll understand if I don’t hold my breath.

Yes, we understand your point. I hope you read the first part of our post that explains why we had to stop and why things went silent.

We came out preemptively and teased you. It wasn't intentional, but it happened. We are sorry.
 
It has been so long that I've bought many other STANAG mags since first hearing about these... So I don't really need them anymore...


Buuuut when has that ever stopped me from buying gun stuff in the past. I'll probably pick some of these up regardless, lol.
