Reviews & Ratings for Strike Industries Enhanced Magazine Plate for PMAG Gen 3 — 19 reviews — Page 1

Only 2 out of 8 Strike Industries Enhanced Magazine Plates for PMAG Gen 3 didn’t break during installation. 3 broke while trying to fully seat them on the magazine and 3 broke while driving in the roll pins. With this track record I am sure suspicious of the 2 that didn’t break.
I would recommend looking elsewhere for a AR15 PMAG extension.

I had three on forty round magazines and all shattered to one side when dropped on the ground. They are cheap, but not effective

Installation was a breeze. Looks great! I haven’t used it yet, I will come back and edit as soon as I put it to the test. Shipping was a bit longer than I expected, OP said it was in stock!? So idk. Anyway I appreciate the price point as well. I guess I don’t have anything else to say as of now.

extremely hard to push into place and once in place, the tab broke off. try to secure with roll pin? the pin does not fit

Super easy to install, also looks proper.i preferred these on a winowed mag

Couple taps towards the end and it pops on without issues. I put one on a 30rd and one on a 40rd. Ill be buying a few more soon. Gonna convert all my 30 rounders to 35rd

This is pretty easy to install and adds five rounds to a third gen Magpul 5.56 magazine. My only complaint is with the FDE not matching the MAGPUL FDE color. The black is a perfect match but for whatever reason the tan is not. This is not a deal breaker it's just not a perfect color match. I have ran these on 20 round mags with no issues. I installed 2 more on 30 round mags and also found no problems, with magazines running great. No feed issues with the stock springs made me really happy. These Mag plates made by Strike Industries are much better than the expensive aluminum Mag plates. I've dropped them a few times and they're not moving from the mag. They're very well designed. I do believe they'll wear better over time compared to an aluminum Mag plate that will show scratches after hitting the deck multiple times, reload after reload. A little install trick I learned after the second install was to drop a very tiny drop of soap onto the holding pins to install them without a fight. Just don't use too much or they will slide around to much.

Broke upon installation. Couldn’t get it to seat and pushed and it all snapped.

The strike ind mag extension was an easy install. I purchased 5 total and was able to add them to both my short mags and my full size mags.

Unmodified, it is almost impossible to install. The latch is too big and too inflexible to slip over the base of the pmag. If you instead use a knife to shave down the catch, it will install much easier and the roll pins will lock it in place. removing the roll pins is a bit tricky, but can be done with a punch or by putting the pins against a metal ledge and pushing down on the baseplate.

I found that in a 30rd gen 3, I was only able to get +3.

Despite the problems, it does allow for +3 rounds and makes it easier to pull from a mag pouch.
