Question Okay Mags or Center Industries?

Ammoman.com is selling Okay Industries and Center Industries 30 round mags for 5 for $65...
http://www.ammoman.com/index.htm

Are either of these decent mags?

For that matter who makes the best 30 rounders?

Thanks,
Cameron

Both are good and both have made mags for the US Military.

Yep. They are both about the same, but equally good. And as for your question, HK makes the best 30 rd magazine I've used. Smooth.

I am rather fond of DSG's new Flat Dark Earth mags but I am biased.

Hi Dave- fyi- i gave 6 mags to a student to use in this class. Appx 2000 rdsdown range in rain, mud and heat, no problems (of course) and the FDE finish shows no wear.
I have two more classes to run at Ft Benning and Albuquerque in the next two weeks, and will keep you updated.

Their mags are nothing more than D&H mags in a pretty color.

I would stick with Okay's if possible. The centers I have used seem to have the finish wear off easily.

Both are good mags. I currently have about 50+ Okays with the tan magpul followers and lumpy plates. I have used these for years and have never had any problems with these.

The DSG Arms mags are good mags also. I have a few 30's and 20's. They are like Grant stated, "D&H mags in a pretty color."

You can find the Okays for as low as $10 a mag if you shop around.

DSG was going for an Earth tone but if you guys want to call them "pretty"...then whatever floats your boat ...your secret is safe with me
