Lancer L5AWM Advanced Warfighter Magazine, 30 Round
The L5 AWM is a hybrid magazine that combines the best features of polymer and steel magazine designs.
Unique to the AWM is the one piece wrap-around hardened steel feed lip assembly that is permanently attached to an impact resistant polymer body. The hardened steel feed lips wont bend, break or deform due to rough handling or long term storage. An aggressive surface texture has been applied to the polymer body to improve gripping and retrieval from pouches. The combination of steel and polymer result in a lightweight, robust magazine tough enough for professional use.
The internal geometry of the Advanced Warfighter Magazine is a constant curve that has been maximized to feed the 5.56X45mm NATO round and has a non-tilting follower for trouble-free feeding. The feed lips are made from a single piece of precision formed steel that is hardened, then PTFE coated for corrosion resistance. The body and component materials are corrosion and chemical resistant, passing military chemical testing, including exposure to DEET.
The L5 AWM is compatible with modern weapon systems; M4/M16/AR15, HK416, SCAR-L / Mk16, and the ARX160 to name a few.

My go to magazines
I use the Lancer magazines as the primary magazine in my 300 Blackout as well as my 5.56 AR rifles. The 5.56 version of their magazine works in both calibers and work flawlessly. I have them in 10,20 and 30 round versions.

Not Clear
Great Magazines but I ordered them because they said they were opaque meaning see through and they were not they were a solid FDE color. The only see through ones are the Smoke color ones. 2 stars since advertising was misleading but magazines are excellent will just add them to my Zombie Go Bag

Great
Will have to give a thorough review soon when I go to another rifle course. Dropped them a few times on the lips and base and they seem good to go. They sound cheap when dropped or hit, but it has held up thus far. Its great to be able to see exactly how many rounds you have left.

Great Hybrid
Stellar S&H from SKD, thanks Guys. Not the best price but pretty good. I received one of these mags with a Sig 516CF (Lancer Carbon Fiber Hand Guard). I was so impressed with the thought Lancer's engineers appear to put into their products, that I wanted to put these mags to a more true test (hence ordering four more). I only have about 500 rds through these mags but all aspects of operation have been flawless, however time will tell. I really like the concept of hardened steel feed lips, once again only time will tell if corrosion will be an issue once the coating gets some serious wear on it. Really nice alternative to all polymer mags, get ya some.

Excellent product
An excellent product at a reasonable price. What sold me was the $5 shipping. The price of the mags was equivalent to quite a few other sites, but shipping is always the deciding factor in these cases. The mags themselves are infallible. So much so that I got rid of all my magpul's

L5AWM
Function flawlessly, design seems really rugged. Slowly but surely replacing all my Pmags with these.

Feed 300BLK great
Got a pair to troubleshoot inconsistent 300 Blackout feeding issues with my AR-pistol Build. Work great - will get some more!
