Anyone ever use the Orolite Galil magazines. I see them at a decent price compared to regular Galil magazines and figure I would try some if they are any good.

  I've used the Orlite for years in my CAR-15.Absolutely flawless. I would assume those for the Galil are of equal quality.Both are Israeli issue.
  
  Now that I think of it, doesn't the Galil use the same magazine as the M-16?

  I bought some of the Orlite 35rd Synthetic ones for a Saiga 223 they work real good.I just had to trim alittle on the sides to get them to fit.

  At one time I owned an Olympic version of the AR-15....Orlites didn't fit it either.I've noticed that the mag wells of different copies are not EXACTALLY the same as a Colt.There is a reinforcing rib on the Orlites that prevent full seating of the mag.This can be trimmed as D&D has done.
  
  For my Olympic I actually removed some metal by beveling inside the well where the mag hit. It took very little,and had no effect on the use of G.I. mags.
