Any one tried any of these? I'm thinking about buying a few 33 rounds. Cdnn has them for 12.99 each.
thanks

Ive got 2 31rd 40 cal ones, springs are extremely stiff.. I havent been able to load past 25 rds yet on either and thats after taking them apart and spraying everything very thoroughly with a composite safe lube made by s&w.

I bought one a while back from somewhere for $10, along with a couple of 17 rounders with a 2 mag case for another $10. Strictly range mags, for sure, however all 3 of them seem to work just fine. I did disassemble them before using them to clean all the excess plastic mold overflow. There was an abundance of it, too. Even though the 17 rounders worked OK, I wasn't really impressed with them. They were cheap in a lot of ways and I've read that the baseplates have a tendancy to crack when dropped. However, the 33 rounder was a different story. It was a different brand from the ATIs and was better quality. Another plus was that it actually held 34 rounds. I used it for a while and then put it up, because it seemed I was wasting a lot of ammo clowning around with it. I wound up taking the +2 extension off of it and using it on one of my G19 mags. That part seems as good as the ones I've bought for as much as the Korean mag cost. For $10 or $12, they aren't bad for range duty. The springs are stiff at first, but they tend to weaken pretty quickly. Never had any problems with them, but it takes a while to clean them up. Without that cleaning, I don't think they would have functioned very well, because there is a ton of excess plastic inside them and it has to be cut out with a razor or exacto knife.

Yeah, that's as good as I've gotten out of the one's I got. Shoots well though. We're those factories when you had Cap't, 'Neck and SGF drooling over yours at Magnolia. I know you wish you had a trunk load that day. Think they all bought one.

You absolutely get what you pay for. I got a few Asian mags a while back to save some money. They were fine at first but they are not so good for the long term. I've started getting a lot of feed problems and the floor plates will pop off if you leave them loaded for too long. Proceed with caution.
