Thanks.

I just ordered a couple to see how they go. Most of the other Korean mags Ive used with my Glocks and M1 Carbines have worked well.

They kind of **** you with the $13 flat rate shipping if youre only buying a couple, so buying in bulk would be better.

 

Just for point of reference: someone posted that up Dec/Jan And I picked up #200 for just under $5/per shipped.

I haven't used any of them, but they seem to be a higher quality than I anticipated.

 

I'm in for a batch of them.

 

Get em while you still can.

Ammo is sold out.

 

I was thinking I'd bought some of these previously, but mine have green followers, and came from CDNN . . . and cost $10 each, a couple years ago. Prior to that, I bought some Israeli steel mags, E-Landers I think. I have no particular issue with aluminum or polymer mags, but prefer stainless steel for "deep storage" and have amassed quite a few.

 

They have a limit of 26 mags now.

 

So get those 26 and add 26 of the Korean AK mags and it's still just $13 shipping.

 

Wandered around the site for other items, too.

Thanks for the resource; going to give it a go.

 

Thank you for separating me from my money. . I have plenty of mags but I can’t resist jumping on a decent deal.

 

Did you check out the deal on 7.62x39? $210 a case with $12.95 shipping

 

Thanks for the info. I just purchased 3 of them. Total with shipping was 35.96. If I like them will order more later .

 

dang wish Id of seen this sooner,I ordered bunch of mags and rounds from PSA,as soon as the kung flu hit,i beat the price jump on everything and don't think I'll ever need it,but my great grandkids might:

 

Price on the AR15 mags just dropped for $5.99.

 

D-Oh!!

And the AK mags are a dollar cheaper too. Good grief.

 

Thanks for the tip.

I haven't used these but the Koreans seem to make serviceable good mags so I took a chance. They get good reviews as well.

Picked up 15 so with shipping about $100. Works out to under $7 each, which is a great deal normally and a smoking good deal in the current chaotic environment.

With the current and accelerating chaotic climate, good gun and accessory and ammo prices are becoming more scarce so stack 'em deep. We are regressing in Corona Virus, nationwide mobs destroying cities, prisoners let loose on the public, and it's mid-year in a vicious election year where gun control will be a theme.

 

Haven't had a chance to run mine through at the range but got them last week (along with some appropriate Wolf ammo) and other than stiff springs common for new mags I'm pretty impressed. A good bit heavier than my Magpuls but for the price I'll deal with it.

 

Got mine last week as well. Good solid mags and they work fine.

 

Good to hear, I got a bunch last week also. Honestly they will probably sit on a shelf unused for a long time. Good to know they will work when I need them.

 

Has anyone tried that Australian Outback brand .223 they have on that site? The reviews are good, but is it brass or steel cases?

They have a 200 round case, buy one, get one free for $192.28. If they mean you get 400 rounds, that's not a bad price at .48 cents each. However, if it's only 200 rounds, that's a horrible price, .96 cents each.

 

Never tried them.

It’s an awful price at $.48 unfortunately.

However seems to be where the markets at.

Fortunately we don’t have a want, or worse a NEED. Feel for folks whom do, for whatever reasons, of which there are aplenty.

 

I ordered 6 to check them out. When the pkg got here, at first I thought it was some ammo I ordered, but wasn't quite heavy enough, seemed a bit too heavy for some bullets I ordered. I was surprised to find out it was the magazines. These bastards are HEAVY.

 

Had some friends over to shoot yesterday. Shot with the steel Korean AR and AK mags. Both worked just fine.

 

The ten I ordered arrived yesterday and they appear well made. Haven't shot them but from other's reports I am not expecting any surprises.

 

Bought some AK ammo from them, along with some AR magazines, back on the 4th.

Thanks again for the heads up!

All are for handouts / gifts & straight profit resale/trade, so price was pretty reasonable considering.

Just now wanted to take a looksee at SGammo for a comparator valuation on that ammunition, including shipping:

$.28/rd SGammo vs $.21/rd global ordnance (now out of stock).

$.21/rd is pretty high, IMO. But still has decent trade/resale value in current market.

Gift value is just that. Priceless.

Also notable, ran into “sight down” message wall at SGammo when I went to check shipping price on Golden Tiger AK ammo (case shipping price is usually standard at SG). Anywho, kinda telling of how truly wonky the market is.

 

I ordered 3 of them. Very good quality according to my son. So today I order 7 more.

 

Oh how I hate this site... I just ordered AR and AK mags...

 

I had a couple of the AR mags. Well built and worked without any issues, but I didn't put more than a few hundred rounds through them. I kept them in a range bag with some other mags for a while. When I decided to clean out the range bag i noticed the mags had some superficial rust spots that came right off. The HK and one old British steel SA80 mag did not have any rust. I included the korean mags with a rifle I sold a couple of years ago, so no long term experience. Since then I standardized on USGI and Magpuls only.

Seems like decent mags, at least range mags, but I do encourage everyone that purchased some to clean them well with a good lubricant protectant. After seeing the ease of rust, if I still had them, I would consider replacing the spring and add a light coat of something like frog lube inside.

Not disagreeing about cleaning and lubing but using some Crisco is cheaper than buying Frog Lube. They are basically the same thing.

While the HK mags might not have rusted iirc they were not good mags as far as function goes according to the AR aficionados who track such things.

 

I have had good results with the D & H aluminum mags from PSA. It's not the cheapest price, but there's no shipping costs if you buy them locally.

https://palmettostatearmory.com/d-h-5-56-30rd-aluminum-magazine-8416.html

They are selling them for $9.99 each, but they have multi packs sometimes (packs of 10, typically, dropping the cost to around $8 per mag) and more recently, bundled with a rifle bag (7 mags plus the bag for $119). Again, not screaming good deals, but not terrible, either.

As far as performance, I have had excellent results in loading them (the follower is ok, but uses a single spring and it can tip to one side...never had one do that, though). At the range, they perform as well as any other brand mags.

It doesn't hurt to put a very small amount of oil on the grooves, as they feel very dry and almost powder coated from the paint they use.

Then there are these beauties:

I picked up several after a direct recomendation from a guy using them at PSA's outdoor range. So far, no ftf / fte issues, and loading is easy using a Maglula loader.

Anyway, I hope that helps some of you who may be intetested.

 

That PSA rifle case/mags combo was a much better deal a few months ago at $89.99.
