SureFire High-Capacity Magazines, available in either 60-round or 100-round

[Until the Angels Fall]

Try getting into Prone or strapping a 100 round mag onto your vest. One I guess would be nice to keep in your pack for OMG moments. I love the 60 rounders tho

Pffftfff... thats what we have LMGs for

 

[turbo-minivan]

my question is, would many people be willing to drop the $300+ each that they would cost up here?
i suppose people have payed it for plastic drums after all..... ??

 

[ndb86]

if it was a reliable .22LR mag then we would be willing pay for them and not have to pin them. win win lol

 

[Mr. Spectacular]

This guy seems to carry them (pinned @ 5).

Never heard of the company, however.

*take out the dash between the Y and the C and it works. For some reason CGN has censored the name of the website?

 

[raks]

Banned dealer IIRC, and CGN wants to avoid liability. YMMV

 

[Deckard]

What's the scoop on that dealer?

 

[Leibermuster]

I bought off him and everything was legally done and went smoothly, no idea what cgn issue with him was??????????

7th post says surfire is NOT registered for export

which means you CANNOT export that item..........

you guys may want to wait until all the bugs are worked out before you try getting some of these.

Guys in the US have been using these for 3 gun competitions and many people have been having problems with them.
some mags are working well while others are failing to the point guys are throwing them in the trash.

May be irrelevant as you'd be pinning them to 5 rounds, but if your intent is to use them in the US, maybe hold off a bit.

this is all I need to know about these surefire mags:

[GunGuy34]

What's the point? They can't be loaded to 60 or 100 legally anyhow, can they?

 

[JoeOnePack]

Is anyone bringing them in?

 

[DILLIGAF]

that depends really

Firearms parts (like a magazine) are different than a flashlight, even a weaponlight, since it's just an accessory, not a major firearms component.

ITAR is concerned with anything that attaches to a gun. Don't kid yourself that a weaponslight would be exempt.

Initial reports on the reliability of these mags is not encouraging.

They were giving these away in prize bags at FNH3G....

Depends on the weaponlight. Some of the surefire stuff gets classified as firearms parts, and some doesn't.

Then again, stuff like scope mounts don't get classified as major firearms components either, you can buy a 200+ dollar scope mount from brownells with no issues, and they are STICKLERS for following rules.

 

[UCSPanther]

Basically, they are just quad-stack magazines. Slimmer profile than the classic drum configuration, but they still add some weight and I imagine they are prone to feeding difficulties.

I estimate that 30 rounds of .223 will add approximately 1.5 pounds to your rifle. A 60 rounder will give about double that...
