MAG M16/M4 ARmalite Series 100rd Mid Cap 'HK engravings' mag

Introduction:
Let's get this review to the point, fast, and in point form.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=270162961783

Ordered From:
Ehobby Asia. Ordered on the night of September 6th. They shipped the product on the next day, arrived in 7 business days + 4 weekend days. So that's 11 days. USD$20 shipping and +USD$2 shipping insurance. The price for the mag itself was $35USD to begin with. So it was $57USD total. I had to ask for the shipment tracking for them to give it to me(Airmail from Hong Kong).


Package

Looks/Exterior:
Engravings are VERY good looking. It's full plastic, so it doesn't feel as good as metal nor is it as durable. But I guess it works.




Fitments:
It's just the same dimensions as the TM low cap except a little bit longer. It kinda wobbles when it's on the gun, just like the stock TM locap, it's a thing you can just fix by wrapping a tape around but it's kinda fugly and covers the engravings.

Loading the mag:
I used the 70 round loader that came with my TM M4 to load this thing just like how I load the locap. It's kinda of hard to get the bullets in unlike the locap. The operation is not as "smooth". But it works fine.

Feeding:
No recorded mis feeds or double feeds really. Perfect here.

Overall impression:
Very good, will order MAG mags again =)

PS:

Does anyone know what this part of the mag is for? That circle thing.

Most likely to disassemble the mag for repair/cleaning.

Not very accurate replication of HK's AR mag. HK's aren't the dog-leg, type. These are.

Thread jack. The TAN/SAND MAG mags have a really bad paint job.

I have feeding issues with a private parts G36 magwell. V1 they seem a little loose and the V2 I can't figure out why they would miss feed.

I have the MAG mp5 mags. Cheap and they looks nice. Only problem I have with mine is that if I load them full they don't feed well. Been like that since I got them tho so I only put in 60 rounds in the 100 round mags.

I had some issues with these mags and Mad Bull 0.28g BBs. Not sure if it's the diameter but it appears MB BBs can "double stack" in the mag and jam beside each other. This is especially prevalent when filling the mags completely. The fix is to hit the mag against something to rattle the jammed BBs free and not overfill the mag. This didn't happen with other BBs in the past so I think the diameter of MBs is just small enough for this to happen.

Are you using the MB .28 the green bag? I got one too, but I have not try to use it in the MAG mag.
Yeah, I heard the new MB bb (green bag) the diameter is inconsistent.. I could be wrong though..
I will try the .28 on mine MAG mags and let you know..
