I’ve been sitting on this for a very long time. Magpul is poised to start promoting a brand new 25 spherical model of the PMAG. Designed along side SureFire particularly for the 6 ARC cartridge, it’s used within the new Intermediate Fight Assault Rifle or ICAR in addition to different upcoming intermediate cartridge rifles from different producers.
6mm ARC (6x38mm) supplies shooters with a light-weight recoiling, correct, and ballistically glorious cartridge possibility. The PMAG 25 ICAR GEN M3 Window journal was designed particularly for the cartridge, providing a sturdy, dependable, light-weight, 25-round 6mm ARC polymer journal for the Surefire ICAR carbine and different firearms with journal wells primarily based off the LWRCI Six8 magazine effectively.
This journal launch goes to reinvigorate the AR market as we are going to start to see rifles and {a magazine} which might adequately deal with the distinctive case design of 6 ARC.
PMAG 25 for 6mm ARC for Surefire ICAR Options:
– 25-rounds of 6mm ARC

The journal itself is a development of the 28 spherical Six8 magazine developed for an LWRC undertaking in 2012. They took that as a beginning block and SureFire developed a bigger magwell to accommodate that journal. Moreover, they used a customized broach to change the check mags for six ARC. The top-user requested for a barely shorter magazine so that they finally gave it a 25 spherical capability. It matches in commonplace 30’spherical AR magazine pouches.
As a lot of you already know, SureFire has been engaged on small arms applied sciences for years such because the AROC working system. Now, they’ve created a whole rifle. I reached out to SureFire to search out what I’m allowed to say about ICAR. That is the assertion they gave me:
SureFire has at all times been dedicated to main from the entrance as we proceed our relentless pursuit of the latest know-how. The ICAR 6 ARC rifle is a glimpse behind the scenes of future SureFire applied sciences in growth. This undertaking is a results of many years of R&D and is an answer for a particular buyer. At present the undertaking is in pre-production standing and the product launch date is TBD right now.
I’ve fired the ICAR and it solutions my complaints relating to earlier variations of carbines chambered in 6 ARC. Primarily, journal points and bolt points. It’s absolutely ambi and even integrates an RRS part on the handguard. The ICAR is a laser and I’m hoping it’s out there quickly. I need one.
This can be a SureFire video on the journal.
Remember to examine the ICAR and journal out within the Magpul sales space at SHOT Present. I imagine will probably be one among, if not the most important draw on the present.
