  Hybrid construction: a polymer body with steel feed lips, which is the part of a magazine that actually wears out.

• Duramag

  budget

  Aluminium and stainless magazines from C Products Defense. The usual pick where a metal magazine is wanted over polymer.

• Hexmag

  budget

  Polymer magazines with a hexagonal grip texture and colour-coded followers for marking loads. Cheaper than a PMAG, without the same track record.
