After OEM, there's Magpul....
Great magazines, own many of them in Gen 2 and 3 and have used them for thousands of rounds down range in 5.56NATO. Never had a magpul magazine fail. I stack them up to 30 for the range and 28 usually for home defense just to make the mag easier to insert with a closed bolt.

Magpul TMag
The round count is wrong? 30 round count is to low.
Don’t work
Fails to feed about every third round. No other magazine I have has this problem.
Worse then a Lancer mag LOW -T confirmed, Magpul should have heeded Travis Haleys evaulations a decade ago
I don't like making this, but the magpul first batch of Tmags is horrendous, you are better off buying magpul m3 window magazines, e2 mags, hk maritime mags, or even used gi mags over this. heed this information if you intend to use this for duty use or defense use. It feels like cheap abs airsoft plastic in the hands with uneven rough grittiness that is abscent from my older magpuls and even recent m3s this year.
First I did a simple test of fully loading the t mag and other listed magazines with mk318 mod1
The Magazine order is as follows from left to right,
1994 restricted hk 416 maritime magazine
2021 Suresneed e2 black
2021 Surefeed e2 Grey
2021 Magpul m3 window pmag blk "nsn marked"
2024 Magpul M3 Tmag od green
2016 Lancer AWM FDE Translucent "prerecall"
The test of 3 simple hard taps on the bottom of the magazine to get the indicated picture as shown below. Followed by a 1 yard drop with the magazine feed lips facing down onto a padded carpet rug with the second indicated picture as show I omitted the lancer awm even though it did drop a rd during the drop since I moved the magazine from the original location. To sum it up The Tmag let a rd go during the tap test that dented the rd of mk318 mod1 below it. I dropped the magazine after removing the stuck up bullet and ommitted that rd for benefit of the doubt. I dropped the Tmag from desk height straight down onto a padded carpet rug it ejected a rd again and dented the 3 rds below it on the right hand side. Avoid this for anything other than light training range use or collecting discontinued magpul memorabilia. In conclusion I was hoping for a better result than what was proven in the past. side note you can remove the follower and pinch the feed lips together and it will reform back like a squishy dog chew toy. it's squishy like the old batch of fnx 45 magwells without needing to be in direct sunlight or toasty!
