    I've heard mixed reviews on them in M14's. I've always purchased Checkmate M14 mags and been very happy.

    Another vote for checkmate. And they're nice folks.
    When dealing with liberals, always attribute to malice what would ordinarily be attributed to incompetence.

    I would pass,the real T57 mags were great but those were from years ago. The current T57 mags are most likely from Korea.

    Go with the proven Checkmate's, you can't go wrong. The only "better" 7.62x51 mag is a BM59 mag.

    We did pick up some new in the wrap Korean mags at Louisville. They fit well and were cheap. Didn't try them yet though

    We really got screwed at Louisville this year, but that's a big story.
