This review compares AR-15 magazines made of polymer (PMAG), steel, and aluminum. While aluminum was once standard issue, it's prone to malfunctions. Steel is preferred over aluminum for its ruggedness and faster drops during reloads. Polymer PMAGs are highlighted as a top choice due to their proven reliability, which is crucial as magazines are a common cause of stoppages in platforms like the M4A1 and M16.

This video details the installation of a Geissele MK8 Super Modular Rail on an AR-15. Key steps include using a Geissele Reaction Rod for upper receiver stability, proper torquing of the proprietary barrel nut, and secure installation of the gas block and tube. The rail is then slid on and secured with two cross-bolts using a T-handle hex wrench. Final steps involve muzzle device installation and a thorough inspection.

Proper ammunition storage is crucial for maintaining reliability and safety. Avoid storing ammo in cardboard boxes in damp environments, as this leads to moisture absorption and corrosion. Utilize airtight containers like ammo cans and control humidity with desiccants like silica gel packs. Heat accelerates gunpowder and primer degradation, so store ammo at stable room temperatures. Reloading primers are particularly vulnerable to moisture and require strict airtight storage.

This video demonstrates how to upgrade an AR-15's A2 furniture to Magpul components.
