    Thanks for the heads up on the OKAY mags, just picked up another 10. I have 10 D&H from BCM to compare them with then they arrive.

    Thanks for the heads up on the great price. Picked up some 30 and a few 20 rounders.

    No problem. I have some PSA D&H magazines I want to compare these to.

    So the Brownells are D&H?

In this way I also have new mags for barter and have fresh, new ammo stored in airtight containers.

    May other mags are a mix - Brownells (most) D&H, and Center Industries make up the bulk. I use these for shooting. I've marked the Brownells with 'B' on the upper right side so I can see it when I drop the mag to check the chamber.

    I ordered 20 more of the D&H's from PSA yesterday. Mags are expendable, as long as they work in training I could care less about appearance of welds and seams.

    No. Brownell's has their own manufacturing line for magazines.

    Just re-read it. I thought Brownells was their own. Thanks.

    I think when people say they feel "cheap" its due to the finish, and how thin the metal feels.

    Measuring both an okay and D&H (BCM) the okay's metal is .050" thick, while the D&H is .042" thick

    The inside of the D&H is rough (what looks like spots left over from the welding), and when depressing the follower, feels rough, while the okay is definitely smoother.

    Eta, these have magpul gen 3 followers.

    I had a center industries mag that was of similar quality to the D&H, but it had a tan follower, and it worked fine.

    Got an email from Botach today saying that even though when I ordered the mags they were in stock, they are actually back ordered. Awesome. Debating on cancelling my order and just buying more PMags for an extra 2-3 bucks each.

    Were those the Teflon or dry film?
