If I found some while I was outside of Martyland I would pick up a few.
The GI mags are still useful in certain firearms that don't like pmags - the FS2000 coming to mind, but also some of the conversions (M85NP, Galil mag adapter, etc.).

My tavor accepts metal mags better than pmags. I've been altering my pmags because metal mags aren't as available

Still got mine, still use them. PMags look wrong in a retro AR build!
The only thing I don't like about GI mags is the follower... although the old metal followers are nifty. Even the newer 'anti-tilt' version isn't great. I routinely replace the followers in my shooting mags with a PMag version.

Blah, blah, blah
I've got more D&H aluminum 30 rounders than anything else. I like them better than plastic.

I had some GI mags that were crap until I replaced the follower. They are just as good or better than Pmags now.

Metal mags are better if you want to store loaded mags. The feed lips will not deform like poly mags. Unless you get Gen3 with the "dust cap."

That's a good price compared to what I've been paying in De.
+1, cheap and they work.
I use poly (Pmags, Lancers) along with Brownells and D&H aluminum mags (both with Magpul followers). PSA has D&H 30 rounders for $6.99. Can't beat that.

I run Bushmaster aluminum mags, and they work great.
I think he is asking because of this. .........

I have a couple dozen Brownells GI mags with Magpul followers I scored for free while I was outside state lines. I dig 'em.

I would love to find someone outside of this crappy state that had a few cases of those.

I believe Quantico Tactical still sells 30-round metal mags with PMAG followers for $8 a pop. I still have a few in bags here JIC.
That was not the reason, but that is a helluva deal. The ones I was looking at were GI used mags, delivered to a free state of course.
