What's the low down on these? I saw a review where a guy shot the magazine with a 5.56 and ran it over with a truck and it was still 100%. People are saying they're the AK's PMAG and I've only seen a couple people have problems with them on TOS.

Why gamble with something as important as a magazine, especially when there are proven reliable alternatives in the same price range?

I thought the Bulgarian "Circle 10" mags were the P-Mags of the AK world...that's all I buy, I have no desire to fix something that isn't broke. YMMV

No offense guys, but you're taking this topic in a different direction than I intended. I'd prefer to keep it related to the Tapco mags.

Mine work fine in both guns.
The only hiccups have been with HP ammo.
Hope that helps.

If they're only going to be range mags, sure.
I think there are better deals on real East Eurpean steel military mags, but if you want you some Tapco, go for it.

My buddy's got a bunch of these that I've had the chance to toy with.
The followers don't tilt, and there's no flex to the mag; it's rock solid. They're ruggedly built, and the followers seem to be the dogs nuts.
I'd consider them the closest thing to a P-Mag you can find for an AK.

I am planning on trying out the followers, as it WILL count as a 922 compliance part. The complete TAPCO mag should be 3 compliance parts IIRC (body follower & floorplate). Another consideration in the TAPCO is the weight savings. Those steel mags are darned heavy!
