I have several PMAGS but I don't have any windowed. Is there a pro or con against the windowed ones? I see some people say they don't want a windowed one, but others say thats all they are intersted in. Is it just personal preferance?

So that half way shooting they can do a tactical mag check. Gotta make sure you got bullets! I always count the rounds in my head so I never saw the point.
you can see how many rounds you have left is the only thing other than that they are useless and have weaker spots in my opinion . the clear inserts have to effect the strength of the mag
What he said.
It's just a way to to quick check for what's left in the mag. Some guys love them, some guys hate them. Myself and all of the guys I know were trained without the use of a windowed mag so its sort of irrelevant. I do see a practical application for it as a quick reference in some situations.
In the end, I figure the general public wants then because its tacticool to see the rounds loaded in the mag.

I would like them if the window were higher up on the mag. After 5-6 rnds you can't see anything anyway. The Lancers are way better to see what you got left, but I won't pay for those either. Metal mags all the way!
I am guessing it is all about the looks as well for most , but yes they will be good to get a quick check on what ya have left . I did 4 years in the Marines and we didnt have windows in our mags and i fired thousands of rounds without needing a window , heck if anything you wouldnt want a window showing nice shiny Brass on the other side in sunlight when you are trying to be covert .
yep, there are bullets in there. Get some!
If you have time to look into a tiny window on the side of the mag, you've got time for a mag change.
