Anyone heard of these or tried them? Just curious as I never heard of them before.

I saw an ad for these. They come in 20 and 30 round versions, with a no questions 5 year free replacement warranty. They are made in Bosnia, I believe. Look interesting, especially in 20. Tanker mags are pricey nowadays.

I have no experience with them.

Anybody, tried these yet?

Are these the same Bosnian commercial steel mags AIM and Apex have been selling?

NVM, I was thinking of the Croations.

Some folks on another forum have bought them and are impressed with the quality. Closer to a milsurp Yugo than the Croations. No word yet on fit or function.

I saw on another forum that there is a problem with the followers, someone bought 3 mags and wound-up replacing all 3 followers and now they work, I don't know if it was a problem with just that particular batch of mags or if its a design flaw...

Just picked up 2 of these direct from Gibbs at the Great American Outdoor Show in Harrisburg.

$11 each. I thought it was a decent price. Haven't had opportunity to use them yet.
