Sorry for all the late new product posts! This is probably going to put a serious hurtin' on XProducts Drum sales.

DESCRIPTION

The PMAG D-60 (https://www.magpul.com/products/pmag-d60-ar-m4?utm_source=drum&utm_medium=drum&utm_campaign=drum&utm_term=drum&utm_content=drum) is a durable, lightweight, highly reliable 60-round 5.56x45 NATO/.223 Remington polymer drum magazine for AR15/M4 compatible weapons.

With a larger capacity than previous PMAGs, the PMAG D-60 (https://www.magpul.com/products/pmag-d60-ar-m4?utm_source=drum&utm_medium=drum&utm_campaign=drum&utm_term=drum&utm_content=drum) gives the shooter 60 rounds of ammunition, effectively allowing the same round count as two standard capacity 30-round magazines without requiring a critical reload.
The unique drum configuration keeps the height of the magazine manageable as well as allowing for prone firing and easier storage. Features an easy-to-use loading lever, paint pen dot matrix for easy marking, and a rear window for instant capacity indication. Compatible with a wide range of NATO firearms such as the M4, M16, SCAR™ MK16/16S, HK®416, MR556, M27 IAR, and others.

Made in U.S.A.

Lets see. Drop a $130 or just do a 3 second mag change... Mag change. Or a Mag coupler and 2 40 rounder's would run about $50 and I get an extra 20 rounds...

I see it more as toy for guys running bumpfire stocks or full auto. I'd rather have 13 PMAGS myself.

99% toy. 1% happy to have against Blackhawk Down type hordes. Hoping to be long gone before they are likely. I'm actually embarrassed to load a even a 40 rounder at the range.
