Anyone used these mags? Quality? Reliability? I just ordered a 3-pack from Sportsman's Guide. I'm shooting a Bushmaster XM15.
Thanks |

That's encouraging...oh well. |

Stick with the good ole USGI's or the infamous PMAG. Granted a decent priced quality mag is hard to come by right now but the sooner you get on the list the sooner you get'em. Try these guys out, took a couple months to get my order but the prices are fair. C Products |

Orlites depend heavily on your inspection... I wouldn't even consider buying an Orlite off the internet. If you can see it before buying it, as long as the feed lips are in good shape you are probably good to go. Them feed lips wear out on them... but if they are in good shape when you get them, moderate range use won't be too bad. |

| man i have a couple orlites i shoot quite often and ive never had a problem with them. Just thought i would throw that out there, since everyone else has put their 2 cents in. As far as throwing them away, i wouldnt, They may work fine for you. Only you will know. |

Ok for range use. I had good luck on the range with my Orlites.... granted they are not PMags, but back when they were about $7 ea... I agree: cancel that order!!! Thats way too much for Orlites.... Buy some used USGIs off of the EE, order some alum. mags from .44mag.com or get on a backorder for some PMags.... or do the AR15.com thing: all of the above!!! |
