Are these guys solid?  I've got a hankering for a curved 20 round steel mag for some reason.

No.  We had a huge blowup over these a few years ago where they were defective and the manufacturer was very difficult to even work with. Never take a chance on them.

Yep. They burned people on this site for gobs of money. Neither Mako or E-Lander gave a shit about making it right. They pulled a quick cash grab and Mako was banned for it.

I trust Israeli guns. Everything else has been hot garbage in my experience.

I have about 20 elander 30’s in the rotation and never an issue…

That’s a sample size of 20… purchased at same time so most likely same batch.

It’s not politics like Springfield trying to buy off leftist politicians.

They literally pulled the biggest scam to ever happen in an online gun forum. And it was the people of this site that had to foot the bill.

Grammar aside, the point seemed clear.

holy CRAP. I came in expecting the usual, "they're heavy but gtg" but daaaaang. I had no idea about the slimy BS. I have four or five and they're fine. I bought em years ago, though. F them.

Had no idea either when I bought mine.  Won't be throwing them out though now that I've got 'em.  I also kinda like steel mags.  So there's that.

Slimy?
Like selling for retail of $12 after sandy hook instead of $40+ like any other mag?

Link to the thread that finally got them banned after fucking us over for 3.5 years and lying dozens of times.


Read through to page two to find their “initial” final response.  The whole thread gets better and better, but by page two it accurately begins to sum up their assholery.

It’s too bad the original thread that the above thread references is gone, it was a perfect example of legendarily terrible customer service, literally years of a guy saying “I’ll have this resolved this week, next week, etc…”

There 17 round 6.5 Grendel mags have been solid for me. I never tried their 5.56mm because I am well stocked with Okay and MagPul.
