[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Romanian or Croatian steel mags?

Posted: 2/24/2015 11:43:19 AM EDT

Found a good price on Romy mags, I'm assuming based on what I have read about the Croatian mags these would be a better bet?

The Romanian and other surplus east European mags have a proven track record. That would be my choice.

Are the Romanian mags marked 22?

The Romnians are likely surplus mags, whereas the Croations are commercial. The Croations are nice but surplus mags > commercial mags.

Yep, buy the Romy's. The Croat mags are interesting, would like one for my collection, but after reading issues with performance I wouldn't buy more than that one for collecting purposes.

I had those new croat mags,and sold them.They wouldn't fit in any of my Romy rifles or pistols.

A lot of people have had issues with the Croatian mags.
