Got some cheap Orlites I'd like to take apart for cleaning.  Is there anything I need to know before I tear into them?

Thanks

There fixed it for ya.  

I bought 4 of those miserable POS mags at a gun show.  I picked what looked like the best of the bunch and still only got one that was usable for range work only.  Spare yourself the frustration and wasted ammo trash them now.  The ban has ended buy USGI!!!!!!!  

Now if your looking for a mag to practice clearing jams your all set up and ready to go.

YMMV but I think they are trash.

I got some as range mags. I took them apart and put them through the dishwasher, they cleaned up great.

Thanks guys.  I figure they have a better chance of working if I clean the sand out
