Was reading another discussion about Pmags and started wondering, how many rounds will a standard capacity 5.56 Pmag cycle in its lifetime? (at what number does it fail to work)?
I suppose there is a figure somewhere online but I thought it would be an interesting question to post here.

If mine lasts for that many rounds, I would be a happy camper.......

Since I am 76 years old and will probably NEVER even use my Pmags, they will certainly last ME a lifetime.[facepalm]

I found this on " the other site that shall not be named"


We do not have a max round count yet on the PMag but it is in excess of 70,000 rounds.

And that was from 2007

Leave them to me in your will Bob and when I (eventually) meet up with you, we'll compare notes. :)
