25 cal magazine tested at 55 yards by a friend in UK

I had the pleasure of testing the .22 mag from Ddark. Loads very similar to a daystate mag where it will click into place for you to seat the next pellet and then you keep on rotating and filling till it is all loaded up. Went though about 5 mags already, feeds flawlessly, no issues. Pic below is a quick run of a mag, .22 out of an impact, 900 fps, little over 11 yards in my basement. Not weighed, just checked for badly bent skirts. Will push it out further when the weather cooperates. Will also compare OEM mag vs the 3D mag at longer ranges. But so far so good. Pellets sit nicely in their independent holes within the mag. No chance of them getting banged up on one another.

I love the index number window; I can never tell how many shots I have left. I would like to see a full range of calibers for FX impact, in black color. I would like to purchase some in .25 and .30 caliber, plus a mag holder. Can this plastic be sanded smooth and painted to improve appearance ? could this design be CNC milled from aluminum with closer tolerances and better appearance? I realize the cost would increase, but your design might make it worth it. There is a good demand for Impact magazines, even though the OEM mags are expensive.

lot of questions, sorry for not answering immediately (for some reason i am not getting email notifications about answers). All three calibers are tested and working and i can make them. I believe this is not the place for selling, it should go to the classifieds. I am still waiting for my Impact (it will be in .22 cal for the start ) so i can test everything personaly.

Magazines are made of PETG material, very durable and they can be sanded and painted. I will make them in black with some changes in printing process so the outer skin is going to be very smooth.

I know it would be ideal to make this magazine in metal casting and CNC milling technology (i have some additional improvements in my head for that case) but i am not able to do that with the technology i have. Of course the price would go up in that case but even if it comes to the price of the original magazine we would have better magazine for the same money.

Please send me PM if interested in initial few mags.
