what kind of Pmag should I purchase?

[mr_dove]

I don't own a rifle yet due to lack of funds but I think I should take advantage of the Magpul deal right now to purchase some.

I'm looking for some quick purchase advice since I have very little AR experience. I fired one once and it was fun enough. I actually want a SIG 556 but the price might force me into an AR instead. It accepts AR mags so I should be fine in the future unless they both get banned before I can afford one.

Windows? yes or no?

what's the difference between generation 2 and 3?

the most basic seems to be a 3rd gen, no window, 30 round.

5 of each type of 5.56 magazines. Differences don't matter.

Gen2, no window, MOE. You can buy more for your $$ and they'll do the same thing any of the others will. Unless a very high-dollar HK is in your future.

Now is not the time to be choosy. Buy all available within your spending limits.

Get 5 of each flavor and 10 of the LRs. Sweat the details later.

Gen 3 just fits a few guns other than the Gen 2 as far as I know. All of them will fit in any AR. The windowed versions look really cool when loaded, but honestly.... just go with what Robby said, and buy as many as possible. If nothing else, you can undoubtedly sell them at a profit just prior to the ban. Or even out of state.

Windows just make them shine in the sun and cost extra money. You cant see the last ten rounds in there anyway so I think that the windowed ones are a waste of money for something that allows everyone a good look at how many rounds you have left in your mag. Just my 2 cents. I would order 5 of the window-less. I think that the instructions on the site are clear that it is 5 TOTAL mags for the order not 5 of each, but if you want to take advantage of a company that is doing good by us then so be it. Maybe I read it wrong.

You read it wrong.
