[ARCHIVED THREAD] - are these mags any good

Posted: 6/2/2003 8:14:38 PM EDT

i know that some are not very dependable. these 20's say western arms on the wrapper, but the floor plate say COLT. they look like they've got new springs in them and new green followers. the finish on them is quite black. there are also 30's that dont say colt but look very similar to the 20's. they look like they've got new black followers and i couldn't see the springs. i think the 20's and the 30's both cost 19.99

I have some colt 20 rounders and they work flawless. These sound like they are Colt magazines that were rebuilt with new springs and followers.

The above mags are aftermarket mags, AVOID AT ALL COST!!!! Besides, for the price they're asking you can find better deals on USGI mags in the Equip. Exch. -

Believe me, I'd put more faith in doing an internet deal via the E.E. rather than buying the mags you've spotted.

thanks for the replies. would it mean anything more if i added that they are what cabelas sells? i would like to not pay shipping but i guess it doesn't matter.
