Lancer Rifle Magazines:

For my M4 rifles, I like 30-round magazines by Magpul, Lancer, and a few others.

I particularly like Lancer magazines for my Farnam Signature 7.62×51 rifle. Lancer makes both a 20-round and a 25-round version. I use both regularly, and both run just fine.

The plastic body of Lancer magazines can be had in “clear,” and “opaque.” I did prefer the smokey version, but I think it is discontinued

Both are now still available, and both are wonderful!

I recommend that all M4 rifle owners maintain at least ten magazines (fully charged) for each rifle.

Rifle magazines can be left fully charged more or less indefinitely, with no degradation in performance. There is really no reason for the existence of an empty magazine.

I bought a few Lancers with the metal feed lips a few years ago but hadn’t even opened them. Thursday, instead of watching the debate, I assembled a new upper to update an older AR-15. Saturday I loaded up some mags and took it to the range to test. I opened up a couple of the Lancers and liked what I saw. I also liked the trim shape and their feel. I ended up not shooting that mag full since it was loaded with Mk 262 77 gr OTM rounds at over a dollar a pop. My results with a… Read more »

When buying ‘new’ AR mags, Lancers are ALL that I buy.

They are nice nags but way to much money in today’s market.
