This video features Jim from Burst Review putting a Bulgarian MWG IK-520 40-round steel-reinforced polymer AR-15 magazine through a durability test. The review aims to assess how well the magazine holds up under stress, involving its use with three firearms and even a car. The content focuses on the practical performance and resilience of this specific AR-15 magazine.
This video showcases a full-auto mag dump using the MWG 90-round drum magazine on a suppressed 5.56 AR-15. The demonstration highlights the magazine's flawless performance during sustained fire, despite significant gas blowback from the suppressor. Post-fire analysis confirms the magazine's reliability and the effectiveness of the rapid fire on multiple targets.
This review evaluates AR-15 magazines based on extensive field testing, not just internet consensus. The Lancer L5AWM is the top pick for its reliability and lightweight design, while Magpul PMAGs are the workhorse standard. Drum magazines like the MWG 90-rounder show promise, but many others, including the Surefire 60-round and Beta C-Mag, are deemed unreliable or impractical for tactical use.
