Looking at giving ASC 40rd stainless steel magazines a shot.

Anyone use them?

If they are the old C-Products 40-rounders, I have used them for years in multigun competition and they have NEVER let me down. I'd bet my life on them. The ones I have actually hold 43 rounds.

Incidentally, I have seen way more problems with 40-round PMAGS.

I thought 40 round PMags were GTG?

What problems have you seen with 40 round Pmags?  First I've heard of that.

Have you tried leaving the old cproducts mags loaded up with 43 rounds for extended periods of time?

@StealthyBlagga

I don't believe they'd be C-Products Defense as they seem to be specifically branded as ASC, therefore made after the split?

Here's a link to what I'm looking at for everyone to peruse:

Looks the same to me - only way to know is try one and see how it works for you.

Shop around. One of the other companies was selling them for $12. Out of stock now.

I'll give a couple a try and keep my eye out for the cheaper ones if the first batch works out well.

Like others, I have heard 40 rd Pmags are GTG.

Also, if you can find them, 40rd Sterling mags are also GTG in my experience.
