🇺🇸 Ships from FL
The PMAG 10 AR/M4 GEN M3 is a 10-round 5.56x45 NATO (.223 Remington) polymer magazine for AR-15/M4 compatible weapons. Built with the same polymer technology, anti-tilt follower, and stainless steel feed lips as the 30-round PMAG, it's the restricted-state-compliant standard for shooters in California, New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts, Hawaii, and other capacity-limited states.

Why Shooters Choose the PMAG 10 GEN M3
-
Restricted-state compliant. The 10-round capacity meets California (Penal Code §32310), New York (SAFE Act), New Jersey (max 10 rounds), Massachusetts, Hawaii, Maryland, and Vermont magazine restrictions. Legal where 30-round mags are not.
-
True Magpul reliability. Same testing program as the legendary 30-round PMAG — drop, impact, sand, salt spray, environmental qualification. The 10-round version doesn't sacrifice durability for capacity.
-
Anti-tilt follower. Wide-stance polymer follower prevents nose-dive feed failures, especially critical for hollow-point and soft-point defensive ammunition.
-
Standard 30-round form factor. Unlike pinned-and-blocked 30-round mags, the PMAG 10 is a clean 10-round design — no awkward block to fail, no possibility of accidentally exceeding capacity.
-
Stackable in a chest rig. Same OD profile as the 30-round PMAG. Drop in any standard chest rig or mag pouch — no re-spec'ing your kit.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this the same as a "pinned" 30-round mag?
No, and the difference matters. This is a true 10-round magazine — physically holds 10 rounds, no block, no pin. "Pinned and blocked" 30-round mags are 30-round bodies with an internal block to limit capacity, and they're legal in some states but not others (CA specifically requires permanently fixed magazines). For maximum compliance, a true 10-round PMAG is the safer legal choice.
Will this fit my standard AR-15 mag well?
Yes — same physical dimensions as the 30-round PMAG, just with internal capacity limited to 10 rounds. Drops in any standard AR-15 mag well that accepts PMAGs.
Can I use this in California?
Yes for fixed-magazine builds — California requires the magazine to be permanently fixed to the firearm. For free-state-converted-to-CA rifles, this 10-round PMAG provides the capacity-compliant magazine. Always check current §32310 status and consult a California firearms attorney for your specific configuration.
How does this compare to USGI aluminum 10-round mags?
Aluminum: heavier, can dent feed lips, slightly more rigid. Polymer (PMAG): lighter, won't dent, self-lubricating, corrosion-proof. For most users in restricted states, the PMAG is the upgrade choice — same compliance, dramatically better reliability.
Will it work with hollow-point defensive ammo?
Yes. The anti-tilt follower is specifically engineered to feed hollow-points, soft-points, and defensive ammunition reliably. Test with your specific ammo to confirm in your firearm — but feed failures are rare with PMAGs.
Will TakTactical ship this to my restricted state?
Yes — 10-round magazines are legal in all 50 states. Free shipping on orders over $99. Ships from our US warehouse within 1-2 business days. State law questions? Call (954) 487-9799 — we'll walk you through it.
