Lancer L5AWM Magazines Feature A Hybrid Polymer/Steel Design
Lancer set out to design a better magazine; one with the reliability of steel and the durability and weight of polymer. The L5 Advanced Warfighter Magazine (AWM) is that magazine. The L5AWM's exclusive hybrid design includes a hardened steel feed lip assembly molded into a proprietary polymer body with aggressive surface texturing to create the ultimate rifle magazine tough enough for military, law enforcement, and competition applications.Lancer Advanced Weapons and Components L5AWM AR-15 Magazine (Translucent Smoke) Specifications and Features:

Very well made
Initially it was hard to load shells 8-10. The springs have loosened up after several loadings. No misfires through 100 rounds.

Tested these at the range
Tested these at the range today, worked great no jams no failure to feeds. Shot 180 rounds of Tula ammo no issues. The only thing I can think of is the magazine walls could be thicker, it worked great though I'm probably just being picky.

The Lancer hybrid design
The Lancer hybrid design is the best of both worlds - all of the benefits of metal and plastic magazines but none of the drawbacks. The steel lips mean that you can keep them loaded indefinitely without the use of a cap to take the load off plastic lips like Magpul magazines. Once you use Lancer magazines you won't buy anything else.
