A path forward from STANAG mags

[Clint]

Hey guys, looking for some random input... :?

Put on your completely new gun platform hat 8) and think about answering these questions...

1) what do you think about STANAG mags? are they just fine or the worst thing ever? durability / reliability.
2) are there better designs existing or possible? what are they? pmag/ak/aug?
3) how important is STANAG compatability? for .mil / tactical / recreational
4) what are the usability must haves / must nots? gripping, releasing, inserting, charging...

Blast Away! :mrgreen:

One would not have to look far. Whether it be in 5.56 NATO or 6.8 SPC. My top two choices (and in this order). 1st) HK33, and 2nd) AUG mags.
