You’ll need a fiber laser. You don’t need much power, 20 watt fiber will be fine, but you’ll eventually want more power if you’re going to be doing metals, etc. in the future.
I thought pmags were made of plastic?
Yes, it’s done with a fiber…
Proprietary glass filled nylon, I believe. The new Tmags are probably a polycarbonate blend.
I have a huge pile of PMAGs laying around and have Cerakoted them successfully but haven’t tried to lase any yet. If you’re even considering it, I’d guess You’ve got quite a few bashers laying around. Give it a go. A conservative material test can easily be covered with spray paint if the look doesn’t work out.
Thank all of you.
