The modern shooter demands magazines that combine reliable feeding, durable construction, and low-maintenance storage life. For AR-style platforms where smooth cycling and long-term readiness are priorities, a magazine that reduces friction and resists follower tilt can make a measurable difference at the range and in the field.

PROMAG AR-15

Overview

The PROMAG AR-15 reinvents magazine reliability by integrating rolling elements into an antitilt follower housed in a Technapolymer body. This design—known as the RollerFollower—minimizes lateral friction during feed, promoting a straight, consistent presentation of rounds to the feed ramp. Built with ProMags antifatigue chrome silicon springs, the magazine is rated to be kept loaded and stashed for up to six years without concern for spring sag or loss of tension. Priced at $15.99, it’s an economical upgrade for shooters who value longevity and dependable function. Shop this product

Design & Performance

The RollerFollower is the headline feature: small wheels on the follower reduce contact surface and friction between the follower and magazine body, which helps eliminate tilt and hang-ups that can cause misfeeds. The Technapolymer shell provides impact resistance and consistent internal dimensions across temperature extremes. Combined with chrome silicon springs, the mag maintains reliable upward pressure and feed force even after extended storage.

Why the materials matter

Technapolymer balances strength and weight, resisting dents and deformation that metal bodies can suffer. Chrome silicon springs resist fatigue far better than standard carbon steel, which is critical when magazines are kept loaded for readiness gear or long-term storage.

Practical Considerations

These magazines are suitable for range use, backup duty, or emergency kits where low maintenance and long shelf life matter. The model line is listed as Various, and the Promag brand has focused this design specifically for AR-15 platform users who want a low-cost, reliable magazine option.

Care and Storage

Routine cleaning of the feed lips and occasional inspection of the spring are all that’s needed. Because the spring is chrome silicon, you can leave these magazines loaded in a safe or gear bag for years—Promag rates them for up to six years of loaded storage—reducing prep time before deployment or training.

For shooters seeking a budget-friendly magazine with improved feed geometry and long-term spring life, the PROMAG AR-15 delivers practical performance improvements without a premium price. Check current availability and order directly from our shop page: Check availability.
