Current Brownells magazine quality?

[17K]

Does anyone know if the aluminum mags Brownells sells are good?

I liked their contract mags, but I don't know if they're still the same quality since they haven't had a contract in years.

The mags they had before the mil contract were C-Products if I remember right.

Not to take your thread off topic OP but I was looking at the same mags and ended up grabbing some OKAY Surefeeds from primary arms. Same price..

They're good to go with the anti-tilt follower

That is probably your answer, but the Brownells mags should be GTG. Have been given good ratings for some time now YMMV.

I've got a half dozen that I run in my 11.5". 2500-3k rounds to date, with no malfs.

The Brownells mags I've had in the past have had some sloppy dimensions in the bodies, but none of them ever malfed on my. I used to get them because the came with the brown/tan finish.

I have had some issued a few years back that had the feed lips too far apart-lots of double feeds on brand new mags, for a lot of the guys not just me... maybe it was a bad lot that I got several from on different occasions, I don't know. I am sure they are generally OK but for a few more bucks there are way better options out there.

Probably fine, but when you can get OKAY / D&H for $10-12, I have to ask the question why bother with them?

I thought Brownell's mags were D&H, just branded (like PSA mags).

Last I knew Brownells, BCM, DSG and Palmetto were all D&H. Wish I had the budget to snag a case-lot from BCM... $8 each by the hundred-count is almost as good as Palmetto's best sales for anyone who has the liquidity. I thought about proposing a group buy on these at a local site, but the owner's still trying to recover from a batch of custom-engraved site-logo lowers he took a bath on a few years ago.
