For Those Who Have A 3D Printer Or Go Featureless.

FUAC!

Ingenuity doesn't always take into account versatility and reliability.
Open magazines upside-down seem cool but in real life is a very bad idea.
Rounds will be lost and expose magazines to damage and debris.
The best thing, as with any firearm, is to get proficiency at handling and operating the firearm including magazine changes.
better than have to deal with failures due to bad design in the first place.

I don’t think round will get lost rounds, damage to the lips, or dirt and debris that will impede function in your bedroom unless you live in a tent in the deserts of the Persian Gulf.

That's some dumb shit right there. I guess you only fight on your terms and when you have it scheduled.

A home defense rifle is used in the home. The guy talks about that in the video. The fight isn’t being dragged out to a desert. It sits leaning on a nightstand. What will crack the feed lips while it’s doing that? What sand and debris will get into the magazine while sitting there attached to the gun? I guess spare magazines sitting on the nightstand are going to crack and get full of sand too.

As with anything, know your tools. If your rifle isn’t going outdoors to be dragged on the ground, this isn’t for you. But if it’s strictly used for home defense this may be for you because you do not have to don magazine pouches. Just grab and go.

I personally wouldn’t use a 4 magazine coupler but would use a 2 magazine coupler for inside the home.

First, one will have to demonstrate how this system is better and faster since most of the reloading in a fast paced scenario is
about discarding an object (empty one) and bringing a new (fresh mag) into the firearm.
turning and flipping a magazine left and right and up and down is a guess work open to many mistakes that could be fatal.
On top of that, regardless of the count, if having a magazine stack upside down was considered reliable and any
better, then they would be massively adopted by swat and forced entry teams that do not have to go down prone.
But the fact that nobody uses this or other tacticool type of coupling is one more proof that in real world these things do not
really work or at least do not work for 99% of the people.
Fast access belts, pouches and carriers are a safer and more realistic bet.
The typical coupling is the all-time-2up ghetto shimmed dual mag with electrical tape that very few sport and even less actually use.

Lets wait for the next episode of: Kids with AR15s and 3d printers.

Of course dropping a mag and reaching for another one from your kit is faster. But where is your kit?

You fail to see the difference between combat and home defense. When a window is broken in your home at 3am, you aren’t going to don a kit with all your 10 rd magazines in it, click it on, and adjust the straps. You are going to just grab the rifle. To equate the 2 as the same and why SWAT doesn’t do it is idiotic unless you sleep with your kit on.

Didn't know my belt is called a "kit" now. always learning something new.

It’s a military term. I do not know if you were in or not but that is where it originates from.

It's ridiculous to expect me to defend my home with a 10 round mag. I may not always have the time to throw up a belt, plate carrier, etc.

I plan to fight with what's on my rifle.

For that scenario, I agree with Will. Having ten extra rounds is more important than speed.

If I lived in American I would just use a 33 round mag...

 

[meketrefe]

yow...
some "kits" seem totally useless or maybe there are high kits and low kits...



Again, lets see what the AR 3D printer boys come up with next.
