the comments at Military Times state these would be good for usage in the IAR’s, while I do agree with this statement, I see a problem. Wasn’t one of the reasons for the IAR is that a sustained fire weapon could be brought into a squad without the IAR carrier standing out as much as a SAW carrier? If so, this would be a dead give away to any competent sniper Hadji may have (I know its a stretch). Just my .02. Magpul has had the 48 round extensions for a while, why is this just now getting a nod?
