I was on AIM Surplus website to pick up some extra 7.62x39 magazines and instead of seeing C-Products, they have the same selection of magazines from "DuraMag"
Anybody know the story with them / these mags? BIGGER_HAMMER

Buy 20. You may end up with 5 that work for a while.

I found that C-Products were the best running 7.62x39 mag over several guns.
you have a different maker in mind perhaps? @wildearp |

If you have a time machine, go back and buy some of those.  I have been through many iterations of CP mags since their first release. I finally had about 10 that ran, but they started to fail. I sold all of my remaining mags and I am done with them. Their 5.56 mags were also garbage. |

FWIW, I hear the X39 mags run good (no personal experience). As for the 5.56/.223, my sample size of ~12 was a shit show. When the dust settled I ended up with 5 SS that run reliably enough for range mags. That's all I'll ever use them for. And not buy another. |

I have seven 30rd CPD mags for 7.62x39 and I've never had a problem. The three ASC mags are terrible. They might work okay if you only load 10-15 rounds, after that, they tilt horribly.

Another happy camper for the 762x39 mags.... 10 rounder is fantastic but I'll need to plug it to 5 come hunting season, and 3 30s have been flawless. Have 3 more in wrapper still and two on the way.

No problems for me either in hundreds of rounds of 7.62x39 through CPD mags.

C products work about 90%. ASC suck. I ordered 2 from Bushmaster, these mags work great. My experience. All 10 rounders. |

CPD is the best x39 mag. Light years better than ASC.

The last iteration of C-Products 7.62x49 Mags were quite good. I have 10 of the 20 round mags and a few 10s & 30s.
All of them have fun flawlessly, Both Steel case and hand loaded brass cases. If the DuraMags are just the same C-Product design rebranded, then that’s probably the best 7.62x39 AR mag you can buy currently. I had poor experiences with ASC mags, and gave them away. |
