Black Rifles AR 15 magazines

[oceancoursecaddy]

So I have my PSA AR15 all assembled and now I need to move on to purchasing some magazines. Im a newbie to this so what are the better mags, middle of the road mags and the worst mags?

my experience is only with used GI and some new GI copies. they have all worked fine. couldnt say ive had a mag problem.
i wonder about those 60 and 100 rd stick mags that are really wide. do they work? and how about the Korean 100 rd beta mags for $120. do they last?

I've used Brownell's magazines 20 & 30 rounders without a single feed problem for a couple thousand rounds.
They are on sale today. http://www.brownells.com/.aspx/pid=21225/Product/AR-15-M16-20-30-ROUND-MAGAZINES

Heard lots of good about PSA's house labeled, D&H made, .223 mags. $10 you wouldn't be out much to try one

I like the plastic mags best...but, I have had a couple of lowers that didn't like them...

Last one I bought was from Palmetto Armory...

I had one of the 100 round drums.They are pretty cool for mag dumps....but, they are heavy as hell on the rifle. I had to use a bi-pod to shoot with any accuracy...

I have 1 40 rounder that came from P.A. also. It works good...

I've personally never had an issue with a cheap mag. Will continue the cheap route.

I give those $10 PSA mags a thumbs up. I've got six of 'em, never had any problems.

I bought 2 PMag's from a lgs. $15 bucks each. I know they are a decent name so picked them up. Looking at the PSA mags now.

Bob at UAG had been to a gun show selling some aluminum mags for 7 bucks each. Andy and i were at his place the next day and he offered us all the leftovers for 5 bucks each.

Bob is cool.

Thanks man, I am blushing!!
I have some more NIB GI mags for $6.00 each if anyone wants or needs any. They are OK Industry mags with green followers. I think I have about 90 left.

If I wasn't cash-depleted and currently in posession of only one AR-15 I would buy all 90 of those NIB Okay Industries magazines from Silent Bob for $6 each. That is a hell of a deal on an excellent product.

Okay Industries makes USGI magazines for Colt and the DoD. They are a name recognized by AR-15 people.

I have 100+ aluminum magazines of varying manufacture along with 30+ P-Mags. P-Mags are awesome and excellent. Okay Industries is the same, just not as cool-looking.

Brand new, still in wrap, with green anti-tilt follower and for only $6? Buy. All. Now.
