Here's a shot of three mags that my recent gun purchase came with. The first one is obvious, but what are the next two? Are they any good? They look identical to the Colt.

It says right on them who they are made by!  They are all good quality mags. They are very normal mags, I have at least 2 dozen of each mag.

And that Colt mag came out of the Simmonds facility.

Adventure Line, Parsons, and Center are all various shingles outside the same plant in Kansas, and a good quality GI mags.

I apologize for my ignorance. These are the first three AR mags I have actually seen in person. Obviously, we all know what the first one is, that wasn't part of the question. I keep reading on here how everyone keeps saying to get "good quality mags", so I was just making sure that these weren't one of the low quality ones. I was figuring they were basic GI mags, since they looked identical to the Colt but wanted to make sure.
