Lancer Systems L5AWM 20-Round AR-15 Magazine - 5.56 NATO - Translucent Dark Earth

Not what I was expecting. Looks nice, but a little difficult feeding into mag well. Not smooth like the magpul’s or the hexmag’s. I’ll be returning this one.

I bought these to try out on my 450 Bushmaster pistol. It holds 9 rounds and functions perfectly in my platform.

I have other Lancer magazines like these dark earth in different capacities and colors that all work 100%. The steel lips don't spread leaving them loaded for long periods of time in a hot car. They seem to have a stronger spring than some others have and take a good whack to seat them on a closed bolt.

Definite 5 star! Been using these for about a year now. Ordered a couple more. Easy to clean, love the metal top and translucent color to match up with my FDE DD.

I've been using Lancer magazines for about a year now interchanging them with other brands. I find myself loading the Lancers exclusively.

Lancer L5AWM 20rnd translucent mags are exactly what our family prefers for many reasons. Lancer makes high quality magazines with reliable metal top and plastic lower. For us, 20-rnd magazines are better than the 30-rnd since 1) 30-rnd magazines are too tall when shooting prone, and 2) I don't need 30 rounds while hunting. I prefer translucent mags to easily see how many rounds are in the mag. Color options distinguish my mags (tan) from the rest of our family's mag colors. Performance and reliability have been flawless!
An advantage of Lancer mags is that my wife began marking the BOTTOM of her translucent black magazines with silver Sharpie to distinguish which have cheaper bullets from mags that have her more expensive home defense bullets. Once mags are in her chest rig (bottom facing upwards) she can instantly tell which mag has which of her bullets. Now I'm marking bottom of my tan mags with black Sharpie to do the same. Just another option when using these magazines.

I’ve found this a really faithful mag, very durable.
