I never heard of the brand of AK mags above. Yay, nay, or somewhere in between?

I have never seen one those, but wonder why bother, when you can buy genuine Yugo, Bulgarian, and Polish new and used AK mags for the same or less ?

Good point.

The image of the baseplate shows it says "Made in Korea", just like the KCI mags...  So in much the same vein as KCI private brands their Glock mags for a dozen different companies, I'm guessing this is the same case here.

These do say they have last round bolt hold open, so that does stand apart from normal KCI mags.  Maybe they used a different LRBHO follower just for RWB.

If you want 20 round magazines I recommend Hungarian mags. They can be had at Arms of America for $40, twice the price but they are military magazines in unissued condition. For 30s I'd stick with combloc surplus or Arsenal or PSA for polymer, PSA magazines are from what I can tell and reviews I've seen as or possibly more durable than Arsenal polymer mags at half the price.

I purchased and received the RWB mags but from a different retailer. The 30 rounders were about $7.35 and the 20 rounders less than $5.50. Still, I'm feeling buyers remorse as they don't fit due to some steel near the rear tab needing to come off. I never fitted a mag before. Also, the finish is more glossy than I'd like but there is probably spray paint out there to make the sheen more matte.
