    Default Magazine well grip - Some advice, please!

    I'm looking to get a magazine well grip. I don't think the lower is relevant, but it is from YHM if you're wondering.

    I primarily use PMAGs.

    The grip itself isn't the highest priority for me. More importantly, I'm looking for something to help speed up mag changes.

    Any feedback is appreciated. Thank you in advance.

    Practice. And lots of it. That is about the only way to get faster.

    The Arredondo mag well might help a touch, but it looks like complete ass.

    Maybe I should just move away from the PMAGs. I've got some cheap aluminum mags that slam home with little effort, but the tolerance is just too tight between this mag well and the PMAGs. I like my PMAGs though...

    The pmags won't be as rough on your lower when you miss the hole. That is if you care.

    I have a Lancer lower on my rifle and with the large magwell it makes mag changes a breeze; even on the run its still very easy to slap a fresh mag in.

    The lower does make a difference. I have four different manufacturers of lowers and the magwell tolerances are all different. Some are fine with anything and others are like trying to rub two pieces of sandpaper together when inserting a pmag.

    If your lower is new and the parkerization is still all purdy, you are going to fight the sandpaper effect until you practice it smooth and put an ass load of dings all over the mouth.
    Mom's comin' 'round to put it back the way it ought to be.
