No shit! I got 2 bad batches after sending them back and never got the free one for my hassle. None of them were functional. I decided to cut my losses and just junk them since I was wasting my time shipping them back for shitty replacements. |

Next time I'm planning on starting myself on fire and carrying magazines at the time I'll use HK mags.
 Honestly- what requirement is that? Please. I would think Stainless would be better for lips as the aluminum is generally very brittle too-- one bend or two and it's gone. That said- why the funky floorplate? just use a STD plate. That ring just makes the 30 take up as much space as a 40rd mag. My Shooting star CM .45 1911 mags are stainless and stand as testimony to the fact that a good mag can be made of stainless steel. That's not the issue- it's the floorplate. |

Now, are those super reliable SS mags already on the shelves?
And WHERE? Please give me a clue, when and where I might order! I want Magpul followers and CS ( ISMI ? ) springs added at the factory, so I won´t have to pay twice for inwanted items. Regards, H |

The stainless steel magazines have just started being tested. They have a non-tilit follower and optional chrome silicon spring. There will be 3 different floor plates offerred including the standard floor plate. We look to have product ready for sale the last week of January, if all tests are completed and approved. We will be at the Shot Show with all of our products.

C Products will announce to everyone on a special post where and when you will be able to purchase the SS magazines. Please keep in mind that most of this month the magazines will be going through a blend of testing and evaluation at the military and LE levels to further confirm CP test results. We feel those who are doing the evaluations are the best of the best. Also, one of the top 2 manufacturers in the US will be testing. ALL results will be posted. We have listened to everyone's concerns and are addressing them during the tests. Each test site will be filling out a form that describes in full detail how the evaluation tests were performed and their results.
Within the next 7-10 days CP will be opening the web-site to individuals. We will keep you posted on this. CP |

Sounds like you guys are taking it one step at a time, which is the right way to do things.
Everyone who is in a hurry can sit back and wait. An extra few weeks isn't going to kill you, and if it does, its not my fault you didn't plan ahead.

Creative Products' website is now accepting orders for magazines: www.cproductsllc.com. NOTE to Military and Law Enforcement Personnel: Creative products offers you a discounted price for these magazines ($7.90, $2.60 less than the standard price).

I must say that Larry and CP does have very good customer service. I was in on the original CP mags that had the issues a long time ago and things didnt go so well leaving a bad taste in my mouth. Any way Larry from CP seen my post in this thread and sent me an IM wanting to make things right. He has since sent me 4 of the new mags to replace my other mags that were from the bad batch in the very begining.
I have not shot them yet but my initial impression is that the problem I had before has been corrected. The finish is not like that of my labell and D&H mags but just as good as my Center ind mags. When I get the time I will burn a bunch of ammo through them. Again top notch customer service and PR from CP, thanks larry.

The pics made me sorta leery at first -- the body looked nice, but, AAHH! Screws! But if they'll come with regular floorplates, I'd certainly give one a try and, should they prove satisfactory, buy more. I miss my old AK mags.

To all those interested, I am told the CP magazines will ship with MagPul's second generation enhanced follower standard.
What more could a guy want ('cept maybe Stainless Stell magazines with the enhanced follower...  )?Justin |

Does this include the $7.90 mags for Mil/LEOs? |
|

Posted: 1/20/2006 8:33:53 AM EDT

Mil/LE will be $10.10 with the Magpul follower. Originally posted at $8.90. Due to increases in material we have to raise the price to our men and women in uniform . We will continue to do what we can to support them.

To update all of you waiting for the SS mags for evaluation.
We have been testing, evaluating at CP and have had no issues as far as the function of the mag. We do have a slight miss-match on the large flat side. We are correcting this in the tool. It is strictly a cosmetic thing. We should have this cleared up by the end of the week. This product will not go into the market until we know that all of you will be totally satisfied. We feel confident we will launch this product at the SHOT SHOW. I will post again when the mags are shipped. Thanks Larry |

I may not be buying any mags for a bit, but I think the way you are approaching this is a very good idea. You are listening to the people who know what they are looking for, you are testing them before selling them (VERY GOOD!!), and you are making sure that even little cosmetic things are taken care of (the final touch thingy). I applaud your dedication to making a supurb product, and I hope that you reap the rewards of your work. I feel confident that if you listen to the end user, and your product reflects this, you will have many repeat customers.

Sounds good!! I'm going to be at SHOT so I'll be sure to drop by.
Ever consider using the Melonite process to finish your SS mags?? It yeilds a black finish that will NOT come of the way dry films will. Along with a surface hardness comparable to hard chrome. I have a 1911 that went through this process and am very pleased. After ~100 rounds, there are no wear spots at all. Just a thought...  Edited because I was typing too fast the first time.

I believe Melonite is similar to the tennifer process used by GLOCK. That would be one INDESTRUCTABLE magazine. In fact, I wonder how beneficial it would be to coat an entire AR-15 using the Melonite process... Justin |

UPDATE: The US Military/Law Enforcement price has been raised to $8.90 due to increased cost from material vendors. I know Larry rather well and he would want nothing more than to avoid this but they had little choice in the matter. Larry will be in here shortly to elaborate.

Off topic: The Melonite process can only be applied to ferrous metals (iron or steel including S/S). So the Alum. parts of an AR are out. If I had the cash (short right now), the steel parts of my AR (hell all my guns) would be Melonited. I had my gun processed here: Burlington Eng. Back on topic: Magazines |

What is the maximum over all length you can seat bullets out to for your SS magazine. Is it still the standard 2.260" or will it be a little more. Thanks Joe |

Joe,
If I put the SS mag and an aluminum side by side you would not be able to tell the difference. They are exactly the same. The weight difference is 1.6 ounces. These mags are very slick. The black finish looks great. We are very excited about these mags and we believe that when you buy one, you will be to. CP Larry |

Thanks for the quick reply. If I understand you correctly the SS flat stock you are using is the same gage as the aluminum mags and all dimensions are the same. This is why the weight increase by 1.6 ounces. As you probably figured out I reload my own cartridges and thought you SS mags may have used a smaller gage resulting in more internal over all length. This would help out with some bullet types in the .223 and 6X45mm cartridges. Joe |

Joe,
The length and width are the same. There are many slight dimensional changes. I really can't go in to it more than that. It just looks like our aluminum 30. Try it, you'll like it. Larry |
