 - Rate this helpful!, January 26, 2009 Massa-cre is WRONG, this is a MIDCAP, meaning there IS NO WINDING. You take a speed loader and jam the bbs in.
130 bbs is a very good amount for a midcap. These work great with most m4/m16/L85 AEGs, however, be warned if you want to use these with the KWA KM-4/16 series, because they may not work. I am not saying they definitely won't, but there are some that don't. The people at the KWA forum are trying to figure out any mods to use to make every one work, but be warned.
Pros-
130bbs is a lot for a MID CAP
Plastic makes for a cheaper mag, may be a con for some
VN style looks cool
Works well for most AEGs
Cheap to buy one
Cons-
$12 is sort of expensive to buy in bulk
MAY not work for KWA KM-4/16 series AEG

 - Superior Mag., May 24, 2009 I have the Echo 1 Stag M-4 with the full stock and needed a cheap mag for an upcoming game but didn't have a lot of cash so I bought (2) two of these. I just wanted something to get me by until I got the bucks for more hi-caps, But after test firing these I am done with the hi-caps. 130 rnds in a tight compact package. No jams or misfeeds even in full auto. Much better than expected. If you're doing a Vietnam style load out, these mags fit very well into a bandoleer and the low profile makes going prone a whole lot easier.
Pro: Low profile
130 rnds
No jams
Good Price
Good fit in mag well
Con: I can't think of any.
Overall: Buy one and carry it as a backup you will not be disappointed!
It fits good in the twinkie pouch on my vest.

- A nice low profile mag, December 22, 2008 I occasionally use this magazine in my CA m-15 longbarrel and it works very nicely. Not once has it misfired and is low profile so is pretty useful while moving through think brush, bushes, trees and logs that make up New England
Alright as always, pros and cons time.
PROS:
Low Profile
Durable
Doesn't misfeed
Can work in most Marui Compatible guns
CONS:
130 BB's isn't the best high cap, but it only takes 1 BB with Bo's Wounded Rule
Plastic

- Great Magazines!, July 08, 2009 These are perfect magazines for anyone looking for new M4/M16 magazines. I just got mine today and I'm very impressed. I might even switch from using hi caps to the mid cap mags.
Pros:
Very Durable
Won't rust like the metal mags
130 rounds in a low profile Vietnam Style Mag
I have the KWA M16 and these little guys lock in great and don't wobble
Great color (grey, not black)
Very affordable
Cons:
None!
If you were hesitating on buying these, don't. I love 'em and I bet you will too.

- Great Looking Clips, May 07, 2009 i love these magazines. They look awesome on any m16/m4. I bought 2 for my KWA CQB m4 and they look just amazing. Ya they are plastic but they are a really strong plastic.

- great mag, December 30, 2010 if you like to use mid cap mags these are great. they hold just as many as the full length mid caps and i haven't had any jamming or feeding problems with any of these mags yet. the size of these mags are also great because you can stack them 2 high in your pouches and then 2 deep so you end up being able to carry twice as much ammo, and we all know how important having enough ammo is.

- It all depends on your role........, November 11, 2009 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, 130 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 quality.
Happy Hunting...

- perfect for the price, June 08, 2009 Don't let the plastic fool you... these magazines are very heavy duty and durable. This was probably what surprised me the most when I took these out of the box. With the appropriate speed loader, the filling process is short and simple, and when fired, it worked perfectly. There were no jams or misfires at all. So if you're looking for a great mag for your M16 or M4 and not looking to spend too much money, get this. I would suggest buying two or more, depending on your style of play.

- Better than the 190 round hi-caps, June 23, 2009 This mag is much better than the Vietnam style hi-cap mag. No winding and it is almost just as many shots. The price is also better.

- Great Magazines!!!, July 16, 2009 Overall a very good magazine. The magazine is all plastic but very durable and lightweight. I have a echo 1 mod15 and three of these magazines. No misfires, jams, rattling, winding. The magazine does not fall out of my gun and must be pulled (pro or con).
Pros:
Durable
Lightweight
No Winding or Rattling
No Jams or Misfeeds
Short - allows you to get close to the ground
130 is a lot for a midcap
Cons:
Magazine must be pulled out of my rifle and probably others.
Impossible to clamp with real mag clamps - Make your own
IF YOU ARE THINKING OF BUYING THEM. BUY THEM AND A SPEED LOADER.
