Magazine bans suck. But if you live in the unfortunate number of places in the country that have them in place, it’s something you have to deal with. DURAMAG thinks they suck too, but realize that people behind enemy lines still want to shoot. They’re releasing a new line of DURAMAG 10/30 5.56/300 Blackout magazines on social media today for folks in need.
The DURAMAG 10/30 5.56/300 Blackout Magazine
The new mags are made from the ground up as 10-round mags and are made for use with both 5.56mm and .300 Blackout rounds. They use a 30-round magazine profile, but they aren’t just modified 30-rounders with a block in them. They start with DURAMAG Speed bodies made from 6061-T6 aluminum and have a type-III hard-coat anodized finish.
They’re available in Black, FDE, Gray, Pink, Red, Blue, Bronze, OD Green, and Desert Gold. You can also get a stainless steel 10/30 magazine in Black. They have a special follower that limits mag capacity. The follower is available in black or orange colors, depending on which mag you pick. Mags have clear capacity markings on the side as well.
DURAMAGs are robotic welded and suitable for extended storage while loaded. You don’t have to worry about loaded mags flexing or swelling, either, which can be the case with some polymer mags. DURAMAGs are made in the USA at the C Products Defense plant in Florida. Prices are $21.70 for the stainless steel mags and $20-70 for the aluminum mags.
10 Rounds in a 30-Round Body?
I have mixed feelings about 10-round mags with a 30-round mag body, but it makes some sense. For one, it gives folks limited to 10 rounds the look of a normal capacity magazine. They can at least pretend their state doesn’t suck that way.
Probably more practically, it allows you to use conventional magazine pouches. It also facilitates reloads better than a short 10-round mag since you have more to grab hold of. If you’re stuck in a ban state and can’t just move, give the new DURAMAG 10/30 5.56/300 Blackout Magazines a look.
