[Flea-ish]

Looking at cheapass plastic midcaps in around 90-110 rounds.

Star, KA, or MAG?

go go gadget vote!

I got one of the King Arms box-O-Mags and they work great, they're the all plastic kind.

I've got 8 MAG mags, apart from needing a few drops of oil at the start, they've been working well for over a year, around 10-12 gamedays so far, interior CQB and outside. Even dropped one in the swamp, still working.

Quite happy with them.

Of the three you've got up there, I would go with Star. I've had feeding issues with KA mags.

I use G&P 100 round metal midcaps for my MP5 and they are awesome. No feeding issues whatsoever, and they have a blued finish rather than being painted.

For the question of cheap mags, Star is an automatic win. KA mags are fought with feeding issues. MAG mags are good but not as cheap as Star.

I have four MAG Mags and they work just fine, I just get annoyed by the last BBs sitting in the mag, you can't tell if the mag is full or empty. Also when you fill it and get near the top, the halves separate about 1" down, give them a squeeze and a BB or two will pop out, great for trying to make guys call their hits in the staging area. Lol, but have used them every game alongside my KA midcaps and my TM locaps, all work flawlessly.

And LUTNIT bought a box of the STAR mags and had problems with them.

Star does produce lemons, but when they're not lemons they're solid as a rock. Which is why I don't ever buy Star mags new, I'll always buy them used. Most people are honest enough to not sell mags with feeding issues without mentioning. I say most people cause I bought a load of them off one guy and fully half of them had feeding issues. But considering the price was $3 shipped each I didn't really care.

MAG or Star and you can't go wrong. But I've found MAG to be cheaper price wise.
