+1. Never had a problem with them for range use. Check the manufacturing date. I have some of the new issue (12/04 I think) that are moly coated instead of parkerized, and they also have stronger springs and alloy followers. |

I have both old and new checkmate mags. If you oil them and scrub them with a plastic cleaning brush, it knocks off some of that rough finish and has made all of mine 100% reliable. I have around 15 of them, 4 or 5 old, the rest new...

Okay, found them on that website when I searched the word "magazine". They are 9.45 each, but no manufacture is listed or even the capacity? Also listed are M16 mags for 12.24 each.
Does anyone know about this vendor? |
