I was wondering is the 40 rounders could be loaded up to 40 rounds.  I've tried 40 round AR mags that could only load 20, and was wondering if AKs were the same way.  Also, I've seen 50 round magazines.  Are they capable of being loaded with 50 rounds?  Thanks for any info.

Watch out for hi cap magazines that are made in the USA. All AK magazines made in the USA are crap. Romanian 40 rounders are the most common right now, they go for $15-20 a piece. I think you are looking at ammunitionstore.com, they have a bunch of USA made magazines for AK's.

What about the 40 rd mags being sold by Dillon Precision?  Are they any good?  Does anyone know who makes them (country or company)?  Thanks.
