Ok that's what I thought. Copper color = chrome silicon, gray = stainless.Originally Posted by Suwannee Tim
By the way, has anyone ever used the CMMG braided springs?: http://cmmginc.secure-mall.com/item/...ent-Spring-915
I used them before and wasn't impressed, they don't fit more than 28 rounds in a mag, even after cutting 3 coils off the spring. I ditched them and put USGI springs back in my mags (glad I only bought 3 to test). Just curious if anyone else had the same experience.

Not necessarily. I've seen some USIG that have a slight goldish tint to them and CS that are gray to black.Ok that's what I thought. Copper color = chrome silicon, gray = stainless.
Tried in conjunction with their SS followers and removed them shortly thereafter. The spring is installed up-side-down, which was odd. The combo was not smooth and seemed to scrape along the inside of the tube.By the way, has anyone ever used the CMMG braided springs.

These KICKASS.
I've been using them for quite a while. They're cheap and they're 10% stronger. Swapped all of my 30rd/20rd mags out with these. Keep lots of pressure on the bolt catch.

Sounds good. What have you put'em through?

Well, I only have been using them for a little over a year now, but they've held up 100% while being loaded/stored full. They've held up 100% through many range trips (maybe 400-500rds per mag x 5-6 mags?) I've got them in a total of 35-40 mags, but only the 5-6 get heavy range time.
Hardly a long enough time to judge accurately, but they're going just as strong as day one. I really like the added pressure - feels more like 20% more power.
