Magpuls and SiG magazines

TaroBear · June 26th, 2010, 20:13

I've seen a lot of people using Magpuls on AR magazines, and I've been having a ton of trouble removing SiG 55X magazines out of their pouches because of the clip together tabs. I've been thinking about shaving them off completly. Anyway, I was wondering if one could use magpuls on SiG magazines. Does anyone have both sitting around so that they can try?

There is a Repro magpul that's more elastic i'm sure you could stretch it over.

SiG mags are a lot chunkier than AR mags, right? I seem to recall AR mags being pretty thin.

Might be able to use 7.62 magpuls on them.

Or just make some paracord ones like everyone used to.

Yup, cut off the nubs... and make paracord magpuls, with black hockey tape, and then take a wax candle and rub the tape all over with the candle getting a wax coating on the tape. The mags nicely fit in M4 shingles without the nubs too.

I know the 7.62 vintage magpuls fit over the G36 magazines. Don't know if they're a comparable size to sig mags though...

I think G36 magazines are thinner than SIG magazines.

Is the candle wax supposed to keep the tape on? I take it you meant "cold" candle wax.

It's about the pants you're wearing and the pants you're team mate is wearing, Is it real multi cam or is it Chinese repro multi cam? I don't know but in the end it's still multicam.
