Tangodown ARC mags in 6.8...

[T.Rexford]

I just received a reply from Tangodown regarding their ARC mags and if they will be produced in 6.8spc. Heres a link to a pic I found for those that have not seen them yet:

These may be our answer to the pmag. They're not out yet and I have not found anything as far as severe testing goes so if anyone has any information it would be welcome.

Anyways the response to the email is as follows:
Dear Mr. Rexford,

Thank you for contacting us. If demand is sufficient, we will consider producing the ARC magazine in 6.8.

We can do another email campaign. Let's find their email address and introduce ourselves. It would be nice to have another source of mags.

Uh... yeah!!!!

If everyone isn't too blown out from the CP group buy,
perhaps we can get them kick started with an order for a few hundred. :twisted:

Any ETA on price???

Dear TD,

I have thoroughly enjoyed my TD products, refer them to others, and often check your offerings when I need new AR equipment. I have been following the discussion regarding your new ARC mags on www.m4carbine.net and www.68forums.net and am happy to see your innovation in this market.

6.8spc has an excellent and growing market which you are considering, and I highly encourage you to move forward. The buyers of 6.8 are very desirous to be able to purchase top quality polymer mags, and the market is obviously absent of that offering.

Thank you for your consideration,

These look awesome ... they have to get design and price right though. PMAGS (where available) are a great product. TD needs to stay in the $15-$20 class to make it worth it.

i dunno ... those things are ooogalay !!!!

I dunno, without the lip they'd be okay looking. And the lip was for a military contract, the civilian market mags wouldn't have that lip.

I sent them some encouragement from their web site "contact us" form. Hopefully if we all pile on they'll consider producing them.

Can't ever have too many choices when it comes to mags. 8)

If they're cheap and they work I couldn't care less about the ooogalay

[carbinero]

They won't be cheap, and I don't think you'll notice the lip when they're in place.

If they work as well as p-mags work in 5.56, and they're < $25, that would be awesome.

Can someone convince me why we need/want plastic mags?

I like the steel, I use HK's at work for the 556 and use the PRI's at the house for the 6.8

I just want to know why we love the Pmags and other steel mags as much?
