Magpul have been churning out a series of the PMAG D-50 Drum Magazines for some years now with the design already been copied for use in airsoft guns. For this batch, Magpul went for the 9mm SMGs, Glock Pistols, and PCCs and we’ll be expecting replicas to be made for airsoft as the firearms covered by this new batch already have their airsoft replicas. The D-50s carry a maximum of 50 rounds.
Just like the previous D-50s, these use polymer and stainless-steel internals. Magpul indicate that all components are corrosion resistant and easy to maintain as they can be quickly opened up for cleaning. As a regular feature in PMAGs, they have windows on the rear so you can have a quick glance on how many rounds are left.
They are all priced the same at US$124.95. We’ll just have to wait for the replicas for airsoft use. Detals below:
PMAG D-50 MP – HK94/MP5
Lightweight but incredibly strong, our PMAG D-50 MP is a highly reliable, 9x19mm Parabellum, 50-round drum magazine for HK94/MP5 large-format pistols and pistol caliber carbines.
The PMAG D-50 MP boasts many of the proven features of our other 9mm drums such as the PMAG D-50® EV9™ – CZ Scorpion® EVO 3. Providing 50-round capacity, the unique drum configuration keeps the height of the magazine manageable, allowing for prone firing and easier storage. For easy loading, it includes a ratcheting loading lever that removes tension from the internal spring.
To keep track of your available firepower, we’ve included a rounds-remaining rear window, a high-visibility follower and a capacity indication roller. And like our other drum magazines, the PMAG D-50 MP is easily disassembled for cleaning and maintenance.
Made in the USA.
PMAG D-50 GL9 – GLOCK
Lightweight but incredibly strong, our PMAG D-50 GL9 is a highly reliable, 9x19mm Parabellum, 50-round drum magazine optimized for double-stack 9mm GLOCK handguns.
The Magpul D-50 GL9 – GLOCK boasts many of the proven features of its 5.56 and 7.62 predecessors, the PMAG D-60® AR/M4 and PMAG D-50® LR/SR GEN M3®, while providing the user with a similar magazine capacity increase. Providing 50-round capacity, the unique drum configuration keeps the height of the magazine manageable, allowing for easier storage. For easy loading, it includes a ratcheting loading lever that removes tension from the internal spring.
To keep track of your available firepower, we’ve included a rounds-remaining rear window, a high-visibility follower and a capacity indication roller.
Easily disassembled for cleaning and featuring an innovative bolt hold-open feature, the D-50 GL9 reliably locks the bolt back on empty when used with firearms designed to lock back on GLOCK pattern magazine followers.
It is recommended that you install a new OEM magazine release on Gen 1-3 GLOCK handguns to support the extra weight of the magazine. Gen 4 GLOCK handguns will require an aftermarket metal magazine release. Installation of a new recoil spring assembly to ensure reliable feeding is strongly recommended. Individual variations between firearms may result in an extra power recoil spring being required.
Use of this D-50 GL9 in pistol caliber carbines (PCC) is not recommended, because the increased length of the feed tower will be partially unsupported in most pistol caliber magazine wells. This unsupported condition may cause premature wear on the feed tower magazine catch, and (in firearms which deviate from factory magazine well specifications) may result in improper round presentation and failures to feed.
