Okay/NHMTG/Colt magazines are the most consistent for USGI style magazines.

I understand LMT branded mags are made by NHMTG? Can anyone confirm or deny that?

Looking for education here.

At the $15-18 price point, why would one choose USGI over Pmag? Availability or is there something else? Thanks.

Since these aren't true USGI, would you guys still recomend them? I could use a few more mags and that doesn't seem like a bad price.

The brownells are pretty good mags (as are the LMT's).

I saw somewhere on the errornet that Brownell's mags are just brand-engineered C-Products. Is this true?

Maybe at one time, but they are made in house now.

That's why I used to avoid them. I thought they might be Cprod's junk.

But as Grant says, they're apparently in house and have a good reputation so far.
