Who knows, as others have stated it may be stronger then a steel equivalent would be, but cold and plastic just never seem to be a good combination. I hope it holds up and lasts a lifetime. If it turns out it doesn't, I can afford to buy a new magazine every year or so if I have to, and still be money ahead I think. So far, I've been nothing but impressed with our Aixis rifles.
