I have covered the TangoDown ARC magazine in detail previously but this is the first photo I have seen of the transparent model.

The magazine utilizes a unique two part design. By using a stronger opaque polymer for the upper part they can make a magazine that is hardier than if it was fully transparent. The “glue” that binds the two parts together is apparently harder than the rest of the mag.
