The Magpul PMAG D-60 delivers reliable high-capacity feeding for AR-15 and M4 platforms with its innovative 60-round drum design. This magazine eliminates the feeding issues common in traditional drum magazines through Magpul's proven polymer construction and spring-loaded follower system. Law enforcement and competitive shooters rely on the D-60 for sustained fire capabilities without compromising reliability.
What Makes This Different
Unlike conventional drum magazines that suffer from spring fatigue and feeding failures, the PMAG D-60 uses a constant-force spring and anti-tilt follower for consistent ammunition presentation. The polymer construction reduces weight by 40% compared to steel alternatives while maintaining structural integrity under stress. Independent testing shows 99.8% reliability across 10,000+ rounds in various environmental conditions.
