Who has the best deal on MP5 mags right now? I need mags that will work with a BW. |

CDNN has German straight 30's for $29.99ea. www.cdnninvestments.com/hk949mm30stg.html |
| Straight mags don't work period! That is why you see them for so cheap compared to German curved mags. Avoid like the plague. Sometimes you hear of people with no issues, but more often than not they don't work regardless of manufacturer. I have a BW5 and they will not feed straight mags. My range rents out real deal MP5's and it won't feed straight mags. A friend of mine has a factory HK94 that was converted to full and it doesn't run on straight mags. See a trend here. |

You mean they need to work too!? Gordon Miller has POF 30rd curved mags with chrome followers for $40. www.hkspecialist.net/mags.htm |

OK, retry: I'm looking for mags that are most likely to work in a brand new BW5-FS. I prefer curved mags because I think they look better. Plus, from what I have heard and read they tend to work better. Plus, I have never fired a (real) MP5 with anything BUT curved mags. Oh, yes, six more weeks and I get to fire a REAL MP5 (or three) again. Plus my BW should be in. Life is good... |

my straight mags work better than the curved mags and always did...I can shoot 800 rounds in straight mags without a jam and barely get 200 shot with curved mags before I have a jam. 40 round aftermarket are the most unreliable while 30 round factory curved are better but I haven't had the experience where they are so great... For those who curse your straight mags, I'll give you $10.00 a piece if you want to liquidate your supply. |

I have never used the straight mags. Been told they will not work, vary well, in my MP-5. ( By people who should know). hug.gifhAs for factory HK mags they are marked at the bottom 9mm x 19 IE On their left side with the mag inserted in the firearm. (All of the ones I have are)haveww.cdnninvestments.comI typed in MP-5 mags. They say 33rds I could only get 28 in mine). I use them for matches. They have always worked for me. They were $19.99 or so. They have NO marking on them. I shot mostly for matches White Box 115gr FMJ 100 rds for $12.04 out the door at Wal-Mart. Hay if the straight mags are cheap.... way not try one! Let us know what you find that works for you!!! PITA45hug.gif WHY WALTZ WHEN YOU CAN ROCK & ROLL |
