Sometimes they have fitting adjustments to be made but they work well.

They are okay but with NIW USGI mags going for $10-$13 why bother?

Bother because they are tougher.Some of the first imported brit mags had some catch hole problems but the singapore ones I got just a 5 pack fit and work great.

My stash includes 25 of each. I like the Brits and USGI for all those reasons. I did get a few of the Singapore ones, and all 5 of them had to have the mag catch hole filed on them to fit all of my AR's
