    The ones I tried to use were junk. If you got more than about 20 rounds in a 30 rounder, the spring tension would overcome the limited strngth of the feed lips and they would "spontaneously unload" themselves.

    They are typically junk just like the USA mags; some will work, but most need some tweeking to function.

    I picked up 2 Western Metal mags for my Mini 14 and they were nothing but scrap iron, before I sent them back I stepped on them so they could not be dumped on some other poor soul.

    Guns don't have fingerprints; they have signatures that can be changed in a moment.

    They have got to be the crappiest mags available. Wouldn't take them even if they were free and all i'd have to do is pay the shipping.

    If you own a Colt, be sure and look into the Orlite mags.I've used these for almost 20 years in my Car-15. They are Israeli issue and almost indestructable.Never had a failure to feed.

    Love them Pre-64's!!!!-Bob
