Product Overview — Simple, Effective Protection
The MAG003-ODG is Magpul’s original rubber magazine sleeve engineered to slip over the bodies of standard 9mm submachine gun magazines (MP5 pattern and similar profiles). Its elastic yet durable construction cushions magazines against dents and scratches, reduces clatter in pouches or packs, and provides a grippier surface for faster, more confident reloads. The result is a small, unobtrusive accessory that extends the life of your mags and improves handling without altering function or fit in most pouches.
Key Features & Benefits
Purpose-Built Fit for 9mm Subgun / MP5-Style Mags: Profiled to cover standard 9mm subgun magazine bodies while preserving feed-lip clearance and baseplate access.
Rugged Elastomer Construction: Absorbs impact and resists abrasion — protects magazine finish from dings and chips.
Improved Grip: Textured rubber surface gives better purchase during mag changes, especially in wet or gloved conditions.
Noise Reduction: Dampens metallic rattle when magazines are carried in pouches or transported.
Low-Profile & Lightweight: Adds protection with minimal bulk so magazines still fit most pouches and carriers.
Tactical OD Green Finish: Olive Drab Green for subdued, gear-matching color coordination.
Easy On / Easy Off: Elastic design allows quick installation and removal for cleaning and inspection.
Compatibility & Fit Notes
Designed primarily for MP5-style 9mm magazines and magazines with similar dimensions and contours.
Because magazine dimensions vary by manufacturer, verify fit on a single magazine before applying sleeves to an entire inventory. The sleeve’s elasticity accommodates slight dimensional differences, but excessively large or small mags may not seat correctly.
Installation & Use
Start at the magazine baseplate and stretch the sleeve slightly.
Roll or slide the sleeve up the magazine body until it seats fully over the sidewalls.
Ensure feed lips and baseplate remain unobstructed and that the sleeve is not interfering with magazine insertion/ejection.
Remove by peeling the sleeve off from the base.
Care & Maintenance
Clean with mild soap and water; rinse and air dry.
Avoid harsh solvents, petroleum-based cleaners, or prolonged UV exposure which can degrade rubber over time.
Inspect sleeves periodically for cuts, tears, or excessive wear and replace if damaged.
Practical Use Cases
Range Days: Protect mags from drops and abrasion during high-volume training.
Tactical / Duty Kits: Reduce noise signature and improve magazine manipulation under stress.
Storage & Transport: Prevent magazines from scratching each other when stored in pouches, cases, or mag pouches.
Identification: Use color-coded sleeves (ODG and other Magpul colors) to mark magazines loaded with different rounds or loads.
