Thank you for the advice

Considering I've paid $7.50 shipped for NEW Colt (Okay Industries) magazines, I can't see the allure on these.

They have issues new out of the box, they have NO track record.

Way too many outstanding choices out there in magazines to screw with this crap!

MUCH better choices...
ANY mag manufactured by Okay Industries (Okay, Colt, NHMTG)
Magpul
Lancer
Etc.

I handled these at Cabelas and said, "i wouldnt take these if they were free."

They showed up during the panic so Cabelas could make a mint selling them for $24.99. They feel like they were made by a cheap chinese toy manufacturer. Since there are pmags and d&h right beside them on the shelves for a good price, there is zero reason to buy this trash.

I went out this morning and fired 30 rds out of all 20 magazines.  Yes, that's 600 rds boys and girls.

No failures, even when bumpfiring.  They all fed perfectly.  Of course, none of them locked the bolt back, but there is a quick fix for that.  

For range mags?  Yeah, they'll do the job.

I use my serious use mags for range mags.

That way I'm SURE they will work when needed.

I got to use one today. It functioned fine and I used it in a new 7.5" pistol that had never been shot before so it had the odds stacked against it but functioned fine. On the last shot the bolt held open on the follower. Not really a big deal unless it causes damage to the follower.

I'm curious why we saw these at Cabelas and then nothing? Did this mystery company only make one batch and blew 'em out at cabelas? Has anyone seen them for sale anywhere else?

I didn't know OKay was NHMTG. You learn something every day.

Dammit I knew it, there had to be something behind the NHMTG mags.  These mags are great, now I know why, made by a great company.  I have 30 round OKay mags used by Moses himself to guard the Arc, and they are 100% reliable.

Now I know why.
