C Products stainless mags ?

[stenmon]

Anybody use their 223 mags ? How do they work for you ? Im thinking of buying some. I have had good luck with their stainless 9mm AR mags.

I purchased them for resale and personal use. I have had no issues.

Not worth anything more than std milspec mags. The type of steel used is not particularly corrosion resistant. It attracts a magnet.

Thanks guys. I ordered a couple.

I like them.
The finish flakes off on the wear points though.
The thing I like best is that they are a little thinner so you can seat the bullet out a little more.

:nutkick I have about 100 of the 223 mags and they seem to work just fine. However, I did have a problem with the 9mm mags. The angle of the mag follower is tilted up towards the front. When the bolt pulls out a spent casing, the tip of the round below it is hitting the casing before the ejector pushes it out causing el grande jam. My original colt mags have level followers. So, I filed down each of my C Product 9mm mags and they work fine. I have a number of the Colt 9mm ARs and this happened in each one. The bodies of the 9mm mags are top notch...at least as good as Colt.

No problems with their 5.56 magazines. I did just get five 7.62 magazines from them; none of which will fit. They cannot be completely inserted with the bolt closed. The bolt carrier cannot travel forward with the magazine inserted. They will be going back tomorrow.

UGH That's not good news Jager

I have been thinking about getting a 7.62 upper for my AR but mags are the issue with price and all I was hoping someone like Cproducts would make a good one thats reasonable in price I agree...their 223 mags are certainly good range mags etc no problems there the 9mm mags I don't like, but haven't tried the 7.39x39 ones and now that u say that bummed ugh Def good to know tho!!!!!!

i have about 40 AR mags from different companies. by far, i like the pmags and brownells. c-prods are okay for range use. like anything...if you get a good one, you will have no probs whatsoever. i have a few that i just want to throw into the street and let traffic have at it.:chairhit

That's pretty much exactly my take on them too. As well as AR Stoner mags, and I'm fairly certain both are made by the same company.

While I'm thinking about this, I have 3 asian mags that I bought from cdnn years ago when they were about $5 that are my favorite (nonPmags) in the whole cabinet. Granted, I swapped the followers out to magpul nontilts when they came out, but those mags have been the best mags I own as far as round counts. Several K through each one and no failures from any of them.
