OK, I saw something today at the flee market. Now I have a question.

Does anyone know if a 30 rd mag has ever been made?

Well I know they was made.

The question should be for what, and will they work in my DMPS?

What is IIRC?

The only thing I could find was FAL 30 rd mags. Are they DPMS compatable?

No.

Im not aware of any 30 round DPMS/SR-25 magazines currently being manufactured.

Bill at highercapacity.us offers 32 and I think 40 rd DPMS pattern mags which he makes by welding two 20 rd mags end to end. I have one of the 32 rd mags which has worked 100% so far. They're kind of pricey and heavy as hell when loaded. They actually change the balance of the gun but if you have a need you might want to give a look.  Also, Armageddonmag.com offers 30 and 40 rd mags that he makes, I think from scratch. I haven't tried them but you could check it out for yourself . If you try one you should post your experience with it.

If I do get on of the above mentined I will let you guys know how it goes for sure.

The reason I was asking is , I was at the flea market Sunday and a guy had a couple 30 308 mags marked M1A. Im sure he will have them next weekend as he sets up there and its not something that wiould sell around here. I can get 2 for 30 , BUT if they are no good to me then Im just spinnin my wheels with no movement.

No, I am asking if they are compatible.

I found a guy with a few and I can get them cheap if they are compatible.

I'm not  really looking for any Mags right now, but just thought that if the M1A Mags would work in my DPMS then I would pick them up cheap and have a few 30 rd Mags.

I have not seen any for sale at any sites, so it was hard for me to figure out if they would work, so I figured I would post on here and see what you knowledgeable Dinosaurs knew. <thumbsup>

Hope that helps clear the confusion.
