One of U.S. P.A.L.M.'s newest products is a polymer 30 round AK Magazine, called the AK30.



AK30

This new 30 round magazine fits all AK-47 rifles that use detachable double-stack magazines. The AK30 is constructed of proprietary aerospace polymers developed by Tango Down. The AK30 sets itself apart from other polymer magazines with its purpose-built design and multiple unique features:

No Floor Plate. By eliminating the removable floor plate and bonding the body and end-cap produces a very strong magazine. There is a semi-floating follower that is slotted to allow for easy magazine cleaning. Just dunk the magazine in hot soapy water, rinse and invert to drain. Dry contamination easily flows free through the vented follower design.

Magazine Spring. The AK30 features a chromium-silicon spring that is heat treated, stress relieved and US Mil Spec corrosion resistant coated. Life expectancy for this spring is 100,000+ cycles.

Internal stainless cage. The locking surfaces are reinforced by a stainless steel cage that has been molded into the entire top of the magazine to further ensure reliability for years of trouble free service.

External. This magazine has aggressive ridges on the front and rear allow a positive purchase when seating the AK30 into the rifle. The deep waffle pattern on the magazine sides assist in rapid extraction from magazine pouches, and positive manipulation.

Upon shooting several magazines, we discerned no discernible wear on the surfaces bearing on the magazine. Although we love P-Mag's for our M-4's, we cannot say the same about them.


AK ATTACK RACK

U.S. P.A.L.M. also makes an AK Assault Chest Rig, called the AK Attack Rack.  This ain;t your momma's chest rig,......we have not got our hands on this yet, but appears to be worth looking at for anyone who owns an AK or AKM and has a hard time finding a rig for their 30 round magazines.
