Well it took moving out of the state of The Peoples Republic of Kalifornistan to do it.  I've finally got an AR.  I picked up a Colt Match Target with the 16" barrel.  I'm stoked! Oops.  A little left over Kali lingo there.  
Is there much of a difference in the quality of hi-cap mags.  I see alot of manufactures and price ranges.  I purchased 2 British 30 rounders when I purchase my weapon for 30 bucks each.  I've gone on to the net and seen some mags for as low as 5 bucks.  Can somebody please shed some light.  Thanks

Mag info. [url]http://www.biggerhammer.net/ar15/magazines/[/url] You can always check out the EE for mags. I stick with the aluminum G.I. mags,not to shoot down the steel ones, it's just that I have never tried them.

i've had good luck with the british steel mags i've picked up.

for the same price (or less) though, you can find REALLY nice teflon finished Labelles that are *much* nicer right here on the EE.

i wouldn't stock up too much though. remember, september is right around the corner!

Watch out for the Colt Military Surplus! I bought a few from my favorite gun store and they didn't fit into the reciever. When I took 'em back, I was told that this Gun store had about a 75% return rate on the Colts. The English mags work great!

Congratulations!  Where did you move to?

I have ten British mags which I've used over the past year.  No problems.  You can do better than $30 bucks.

Surfs up!  Oops, watched too many muscle beach movies.  [8d]

Moved over to Arizona.  Man I love this state.  Their state motto should be "We don't take any shi% state"  What a difference from Kali.  I'm 44.  Was born and raised in Kali and watched her go from good to really bad.  Feinstein and Boxer were the worst thing to happen to us. (Us past tense).  I tried to stay as long as I could and not give up the fight.  I thought that Arnonld might do some good.  I doubt it's going to happen.  Kali's done.  There's no hope for her.  Great weather, that's all.
Thanks for the info on the mags.  I'll check out the EE board and get my mags there.
