Ahhh. Thanks. Hopefully they will not just continue to make crap.

They are shut down, and out of business. Thank goodness pmags work.

Have you gotten them to work? I tried them in some non-M revision PMAGs without any luck. Tried them in some M-revision PMAGs and got about 20-25 to fit and feed fine, from a bench. When I went to a carbine course they worked fine for zeroing but once we started moving and doing drills, non of them worked without causing malfunctions. I switched to my C-products mags and didn't have any issues the rest of the day.

Hmm. Did You try just loading them to just to 20? I also had bad results when loaded to 25. Non-Ms do not work at all. I have a few cprod mags that work 100%. I have went through a ton of non working cprod mags, both gloss and flat black coating.

Is there any non-corrosive 5.45x39mm?

I would never shoot that corrosive shit again. My cousin had a Polish Tantal and we shot a lot of ammo through it all corrosive, and you had to take the whole gun apart and clean it, and it was not worth the mess so he ended up selling it.

Yeah, but it's expensive. What's Your problem with cleaning? If it's not worth it to You stick with 5.56.

No, tried them with 25. I might try a couple next week with 20 and see what happens. I have 12 C-products mags and all have been 100% for me, loaded with 28. Hasn't given me enough motivation to try anything else. Yet.

I don't blame You man. I wish cprods worked that good for me. I have a few good cprods that work 100%

Cleaning is one thing, completely disassembling the weapon and throwing it in a tub of hot water than thoroughly cleaning the whole thing is a huge pain in the ass. That negates any of the savings in ammo for me but YMMV.
