US Palm is introducing the AK30 magazine, a polymer AK-47 magazine completely manufactured in the USA.

The 30-round AK-47 magazine uses the polymers developed by Tango Down.  The AK30 magazine also borrows heavily from the design features of the Tango Down AR-15 magazine, including the non-removable floor plate for increased strength, the anti-tilt follower, chromium-silicon spring, and the large waffle-pattern texture on the magazine for a sure grip.

US Palm states the life expectancy on the AK30 magazine is in excess of 100,000 cycles.

Even though the magazine cannot be disassembled, it is still easy to clean due to the vented follower.  US Palm recommends immersing the magazine in soapy water to clean, then rinse and turn it upside down to drain.

MSRP is $29.95.

From US Palm:

This new 30 round magazine fits all AK‐47 rifles that use detachable double‐stack magazines. The AK30 is constructed of proprietary aerospace polymers developed by TangoDown. The AK30 sets itself apart from other polymer magazines with its purpose‐built design and multiple unique features.

We took input from numerous industry professionals; real world operators, military and police active duty personnel, firearms instructors, manufacturing experts, and polymer industry chemists. We did our research to ensure this magazine would be the best from day one.

By eliminating the removable floor plate we created a stronger design; a five‐sided box. This revolutionary design,
paired with advanced polymers gives the AK30 the strength it needs to survive impacts that would destroy other
magazines. After the magazine is molded, the body and end‐cap are bonded together at the molecular level, so no
disassembly is possible or required.

The AK30 has a unique low‐friction semi‐floating follower that is slotted to allow for easy magazine cleaning and hassle‐free maintenance. Just dunk the magazine in hot soapy water, rinse
and invert to drain. Dry contamination easily flows free through the vented follower design.  The AK30 also
features a chromium‐silicon spring that is heat treated, stress relieved and features a US Mil‐Spec coating. Life
expectancy for this spring is 100,000+ cycles.

Inside, there is a lot going on! The feed lips and locking surfaces are reinforced by a stainless steel cage that has
been molded into the entire top of the magazine to further ensure reliability for years of trouble free service.
Outside, our design team created a magazine that can be utilized by an operator in any condition. The aggressive
ridges on the front and rear allow a positive purchase when seating the AK30 into the rifle. The deep waffle
pattern on the magazine’s sides assist in rapid extraction from magazine pouches, and 100% positive manipulation
within conditions beyond extreme. Every surface of the AK30 was given careful consideration to benefit the
operator working in the world’s harshest conditions.
