The DuraMag Speed 30-round magazine delivers enhanced feeding reliability for AR-15 platforms chambered in 300 Blackout and 5.56/.223 calibers. This aluminum construction magazine addresses common feeding issues found in standard GI magazines through precision engineering and advanced follower design.
What Makes This Different
The DuraMag Speed incorporates a four-way anti-tilt follower that maintains consistent cartridge presentation throughout the feeding cycle. Unlike standard aluminum magazines that rely on basic followers, this design reduces double-feeds and failure-to-feed malfunctions by 40% in testing. The stainless steel spring maintains tension longer than traditional carbon steel alternatives, ensuring reliable function even after extended storage periods loaded to capacity.
