This review compares AR-15 magazines made of polymer (PMAG), steel, and aluminum. While aluminum was once standard issue, it's prone to malfunctions.

Avoid common pitfalls when building an AR-15 by planning your rifle's purpose and budget first.

Testing firearms at a range before purchase is highly advised, with models like the Glock 19, CZ P-10 C, and S&W M&P 2.0 Compact being top recommendations for new owners.
