Depends on a bunch of factors. The springs came wear out but it takes lots of rounds going through it. The compression and decompression is what wears them out. You can leave them loaded to full capacity and not have to worry about it.

Dropping them shouldn't be an issue as long as you're not slamming them on concrete. I've used mags that have been dropped, kicked, stepped on you name it and they still function.

That being said, you can never have enough mags.

I did see that, funny how he says hes going to turn in the ar15 to the police but says nothing about the 1911.

A military style weapon? Yea, I found that interesting too. He'd get a kick out of my Five seveN... Hi capacity "clip" "armor piercing" rounds, bayonete, the whole nine yards

Yep, took it to the range yesterday! I need to spend more time there to get the iron sights dialed in, but I have too much homework to do.

~Brian~ · 03-10-2013, 08:04 PM

Does anybody have any idea what this is? I't on the inside of my upper receivers feed ramps... it can't be rust after only 80 rounds, can it?

HaveBlue83 · 03-10-2013, 08:59 PM

thats brass. clean it lol

schaffer · 03-10-2013, 09:19 PM

Make sure you lube it properly. I use mobile 1 full synthetic on mine and it runs like a top.

~Brian~ · 03-10-2013, 09:35 PM

After cleaning it up a bit, I realized that it was either brass or the coating on the upper was wearing. I'm just surprised to see it already, as I've only put 80 rounds through the gun.

cmr076 · 03-10-2013, 09:40 PM

It looks like you're running dirty ammo, was it wolf or something?

~Brian~ · 03-10-2013, 09:59 PM

It was PMC Bronze.. I'm surprised that it made such a mess.

InfiniteMotors · 03-10-2013, 10:18 PM

A little brass scrapings never hurt anybody!

Anyone looking for or know someone looking for a light/laser? Sold my glock this week and have a TLR-2 laying around that needs a home ImageUploadedByTapatalk1363130276.139817.jpg

slowZ · 03-12-2013, 08:45 PM

^^^^ how much and is it universal for all glocks I don't know if they are different from one another or not

schaffer · 03-12-2013, 09:18 PM

Depends on what Glock. The 9/40/357 sig frames are a different size from the 45auto/10mm ones.
