    Hi,

    I know that the U.S. Army used the Magpul Pmag's. (offgridsurvival.com/armybanspmags/

    but I was wondering, did they used also other Magpul products like the handguard? Because they are commercial made.

    Also if you can post a picture I would be very happy! Very Happy
    I've found this one:

    On my deployment we had a few people use the Magpul CTR stocks, but they were all private purchased. Not a unit issue. Lots of PMags as well, but again all private purchase.

    Thanks for the reply!

    Did they bought them because they are more comfortable?

    Partly that, partly the "cool" look, different reasons for different people. Magpul stuff was pretty popular though.

    Ok thanks!

    Did they used the Magpul MOE handguard?

    But sometimes you trow away your mag. If you payed for them by your self, do you need to pay also for the standard issue mags?

    There are issued dumppouches to collect your used magazines so they can be used again.

    The Army doesn't care if you dumped empty mags during a firefight and didn't bring them back.

    I'm not sure what you are driving at with asking about the magpul products, but you have evidence of the P-mags and CTR stocks being used in the photograph you just posted. The Big Army, non-Special Forces folks, would not be able to get away with putting on different handguards, at least not for very long. Special Forces-types pretty much get to do what they want.
