| So what are recommended new springs for 30 round GI mags? I will preface that I am looking for springs for mags that are going to be built into permanent 15 round mags for state compliance. I have seen the red springs and although I acknowledge they seem rather good, I can't justify $7 for spring that won't be used to their full potential. I plan on have Magpul anti tilt followers and L plates installed as well. Any suggestions are appreciated. |

I've seen those. From a standpoint of quality, which is better SS or the CS spring? I'm looking at it from the standpoint of, once the mag is permanently modified, won't be able to open it up to change parts later w/o wrecking the mag body. I know SS won't rust, but how about the CS springs? |

I've never had a problem with CS springs. http://www.ar15.com/archive/topic.html?b=3&f=17&t=422718 When I lived in NJ I used PMags modified by riflegear.com . I had both 20 and 30's. The floor plates are pinned but they can be removed. When I moved back to PA I just knocked the pin through and took out the plastic blocks. I'm still using the same springs in them today. Might be worth getting a few. Look on the left side of the screen for "15 round magazines". http://www.riflegear.com/c-30-magazines.aspx |

Unfortunately cant do anything with them if I move. The bases are epoxied in place. I want some metal body 20 round mags as well to block to 15 so as I have a mix of mags. |
