Quad Mag Prototype, 60-Round Capacity 2009
Shortly after the introduction of the original PMAG, Magpul began working on increased capacity solutions. The “Quad” or “Coffin” mag concept never delivered the reliability in rough handling and adverse conditions that they require from their magazine products, and so the design never made it into production. Lessons learned during this program eventually fed into the D-60 program.
Magpul has just released the new Samsung GALAXY S6 Field Case. Like the rest of the Field Cases, the GALAXY S6 model features PMAG-style ribs, and is made from flexible thermoplastic. The Field Case is available in all standard colors.
Magpul has just finished photography on the upcoming 2016 calendar, and is now working on choosing the best shots and formatting for the final product. It’s still a few months out, but Magpul has provided a behind the scenes video of the photoshoot:

In case you didn’t know, Magpul introduced the new Sand color for their M3 PMAGs. These new mags are not only stronger than the original black M3 PMAGs, but they’re also much more receptive to water-based dye processes, allowing for a greater range of colors. Over at the Magpul booth, Jon Canipe was kind enough to line up the dye jobs they came up with just in time for the show. I gotta say that the pink came out pretty damn good.
Magpul has expanded their line of mobile device Field Cases to include the iPhone 6. Made from flexible thermoplastic, the Field Case features PMAG-style ribs and a snap-on design for easy installation and removal.
Available in Black and OD Green. Designed and manufactured in the USA.

The other day we told you that MagPul wants to get as many PMAGs in the hands of law abiding Coloradans as possible before a ban. Here is their plan.
Magpul is proud to announce the “Boulder Airlift”, our program to make sure that responsible Colorado citizens have the opportunity to own standard capacity PMAGs prior to the potential implementation of pending legislation that would infringe on their Second Amendment Rights. The program will be open to all responsible CO residents, (with both billing and shipping addresses inside CO) and provide access to a limited quantity of PMAGs. Remember to contact members of the Senate and the Governor prior to ordering and urge them to oppose HB 1224.

Similar to the Berlin Airlift, the Boulder Airlift will bring much needed supplies to freedom-loving residents trapped inside occupied territory. While we plan to initially use FedEx or UPS instead of aerial delivery, we figure that $5 flat rate shipping will make up for any loss of “style points.”
The increases we have made and continue to make in production capacity will allow us to open this program with very minimal impact on the number of PMAGs we are shipping to our dealers and distributors out of the state. We are also aware that Colorado is not the only state with existing or pending magazine capacity restrictions; we are working on programs for other affected states as well.
Magpul had a great showing of brand new products at this year’s SHOT, including the VW ‘Battle Bus’ they had on display at their booth.
They’re expanding their line of shotgun stocks and fore-ends to include Mossberg shotguns.
They’re releasing accessories and parts in their new color ‘Ghost Gray’.
They’re doing Gen M3 versions of their 7.62 magazines, in 25, 20, and 10 round models.
Finally, they’ll soon be releasing magazine round limiters and Ranger Plates for the Gen M3 magazine.
Seen above are Bag Man, Dr. Drake, Pink Fluffy Bunny, and White Bunny, the four new CIBoys created through a collaborative effort between Magpul PTS and Mad Rabbit Studio, a Taiwan based creative design house. The four CIBoys are inspired by Magpul Industries and as such feature the Magpul logo somewhere on their design. No word on pricing and availability at the moment. Also, I’ll be damned if Pink Fluffy Bunny doesn’t look like an unholy union of Frank the Bunny from Donnie Darko and the Trollface of internet fame, but with a red suit.

Here’s Mr. Steve Fisher of Magpul Dynamics, giving a rundown of the Legion Firearms LF-15D with their hexagonal barrel ‘honeycombing’ and assorted furniture. Here’s some more information on the hex-fluted barrel, http://kitup.military.com/2012/03/hex-fluted-rifle-barrels-whys.html, and here’s more about the basic rifle. http://soldiersystems.net/2012/01/04/legion-firearms-lf-15d/
Good stuff, good shootin’.
The King Arms Colt M4 MOE is an officially licensed Colt AEG airsoft rifle outfitted with authentic Magpul PTS accessories. It features a full metal barrel and internals including the full-metal gearbox with 7mm bearings and a high-torque motor. For those interested in exactly which Magpul parts are included, they are a MBUS flip-up rear sight, MOE hand guard, MOE pistol grip, MOE stock and a 360-round magazine modeled after the PMAG. At 7 lbs., it’s around the same weight as a real steel M4 which makes it great for training. Two models were released, one with black and one with tan accessories.
