Most drum magazines are garbage – thankfully the Magpul D60 isn't most drum mags.

When I first saw Magpul announce the D60 a few years back, I was optimistic but still skeptical. While it's true that Magpul set the gold standard for reliability with their PMags, drums are a completely different beast. Plus, my personal experience with drum mags has been less than reassuring, with the majority of the models tested experiencing multiple malfunctions every time they're loaded.

But the D60 is different both in the way it loads and functions. It's a superior design to older military drums.

So what's the takeaway? Well, the D60 seems to be the most reliable commercially-made magazine for the AR-15 (or any weapon that accepts STANAG-pattern magazines) currently on the market. It's not cheap, but realistically shooters aren't going to buy 25 of these and load them up. Instead, the Magpul D60 makes an excellent addition to a shooter's loadout for extended range plinking sessions or an end of the world as we know it scenario home defense setup. Because what if four ninjas and a bear break into your house at the same time?
