- Cheaper, but you get less., August 12, 2009

These Vietnam M4/M16 mags are good, but i think you should spend the extra $2 and get the 130rd Echo 1 mid cap instead of this. It's 45rds more for $2 more. If you do decide to get these instead of the other ones, they do feed well. It is a good buy, but still can get more for only a little bit more.

As far as the overall performance of these mags, you can hardly do any better. If you want capacity, then buy a full size mag. I won't bother restating all the information in the description, but they feed flawlessly and are sturdily built to last. No, 85 rounds isn't the best out there, but I believe that the only reason you would be looking at this particular style would be for the historical look or you're looking for a lower profile design for your platform. The few inches you gain with these over a full-size design allows you to really prone out and get your rifle in line with the rest of your body. There's nothing more annoying than trying to make yourself a smaller target and then having to stick your head up to try and take a reasonable shot.....yes you can rotate your gun 90 degrees and shoot sideways...But That's Not The Point! All in all, if you're going for a lower profile, look for a longer range platform (i.e. KWA KM16-SR12 a.k.a. my baby) you can't beat the KA 85's.

Happy Hunting...

don't get me wrong its' a decent mag, but there's other mid cap mags on shorty that hold like 50 more rounds, and it's same price. at least it's a vietnam size mag which means it's smaller, and 85 rounds isn't awful, but it isn't that good so it's up to you.
