Amend 2 mags

[Croak]

Jumped in for a 4-pack. With code it was basically buy 3, get one mostly free.

I know some people are gonna hate on the 6mm ARC, but on the bright side, at least it will spur demand for mags...

Coward....No guts No glory

Honestly, a product release with this many delays, I would be crazy to be a first adopter for an oversized under capacity magazine.

Sometimes perfection takes time.....ROFL After this many delays it's got to be GOOD.

That too, but I just looked at their Facebook page and it sure looks a 20 round Double stack mag single stacked to 10

My understanding is it's a hybrid stack. The part of the mag locked into the rifle is the single stack section and the rest is where they start to double stack.

Glad to see something new but I'm locked in on a hard pass for these mags.

It definitely looks like the same size as the 5.56 20 Rd mag. Most other manufacturers would make this a 17 Rd Grendel mag? So the Amend hybrid Grendel consumes 7 rds of space to make a polymer mag function?

Yes, we were unable to go with a true double stack and keep strength in the feedlips and outer walls. Polymer requires significant more material in comparison to the metal used in other magazines.

Do we have any pictures of these mystery mags??

Thanks, but I will just wait and see how they do for others. Maybe y'all got them perfect. Cool. Maybe I buy one or two for range work, zeroing and the like.

10 round capacity is below what I like to have when hunting. I have plenty of lower capacity magazines. Generally speaking, they are relegated to range work (lower profile on the bench) or pocket/mag pouch carry as a spare.

Agreed.

You know the situation I walked up on yesterday evening.

A low round count mag is a No go for hog hunting.

I still think it's a cool advancement and hope they sell tons of them. But like you I don't have any need for a 10 round mag.

Now if they could figure out a 26 round version of this and it not be overly long and heavy. Then I would be in on some of those.
