Thermold Magazine Clearance at Academy

[Guest TankerHC]

Looks to be all of them. Saw about 20 on the rack last night. Regular $24.99, now $14.99.

Also, Tapco plastic mags and Red Jacket aluminum mags are on sale for $9.99 each right now. :-)

If those are Thermold by Master Molder I have several I got with a rifle from CDNN. They aren’t nearly the quality of a Pmag just comparing the build quality. $14.99 is the price of a Pmag.

The 20 rounders made from Zytel are quite good, but you can get them for only 4-5 bucks each even now:

Beware of any Thermolds made in Canada, they bought the rights to make them there for the Canadian military in the past, turned out to be very bad indeed, but there are lots of surplus lots still floating around.

I used to buy them all the time when they were like $1 each. Good thing too because you would get about one good one out of like 5-6. Even the good ones were awful. On more than one occasion I would hear a racket only to find out 1/2 the magazine emptied after the feed lips failed. Drop a loaded magazine and the rounds would fly out.

Used three of them yesterday without a problem. Before I bought them I googled some reviews. The reviews said these are 30 round made out of Zytel and that the mags made in Canada were made for the military only. These are made in Carolina, the mags made in Canada were not Zytel and were basically just different types of plastics (Polymers) impregnated with a different polymer for strength. Also a lot of articles saying that the Canadian Military is still using the same mags and plenty used them without issue.

 

Have to do your own research of course, just what I read while standing there. But from minimal experience with them, 180 rounds, no issues. Who knows , at 181 they might begin failing.

 

They worked as well as the Tapco's and Pmags.

Oh, I've had nothing but 100 % success with the 20 rounders I mentioned, have 10 or 12 of them.

 

Only mentioned the questionable Canadian made ones as they have popped up on some sites before.

Yea, some of the articles stated that the Canadian mags are not even Thermolds. That Canada licensed the design patent and manufactured their own mags out of the materials of their choice.

That's what I mentioned in first post. And they used the Thermold name on them, but not Master Molder.
