warpspeed Posted July 18, 2004 Share Posted July 18, 2004 The PMI ones I've seen do. What brand are the Dillon ones? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stingerjg Posted July 18, 2004 Share Posted July 18, 2004 those are not mags sold by Dillion. (page #49) They are sold by Numrich Gun Parts Corp. If they work i dont have a clue. the only ones that i have seen work are the, above stated, PMI's and the Thermold 30/45rd mags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillL223 Posted July 31, 2004 Share Posted July 31, 2004 Everyone says that they are junk, but my USA mag runs. It has been o.k. with 43 rounds in it, my buddy loads 44 rounds in his. I also use it as a monopod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhino Posted July 31, 2004 Share Posted July 31, 2004 The brand that seems to work the best for the most people is Sterling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tightloop Posted July 31, 2004 Share Posted July 31, 2004 Just as The Purple One says, Sterling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Airedale Posted July 31, 2004 Share Posted July 31, 2004 I have two from Cheaper than Dirt. I use them regularly in my Bushmaster and my Daewoo. They haven't failed or malfunctioned and cost about $13 each. My 2 cents. Good luck Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRUBL Posted August 13, 2004 Share Posted August 13, 2004 I was fortunate enough to pick and chose 2 - 40 round magazine from about 12 or so....first thing to do is to make sure they fit the gun properly (easy in easy out....both empty and about half full or so). Then I proceeded to change followers and springs right away......not sure if it was needed. But I have 2 USA 40 round mags that work just fine....to the point that I would use either one of these mags as my 'first' mag with out hesitation. I normally don't as the I feel the added weight is not a good thing.....unless I'm in a COF that requires more than 30 rounds. I have used mine as a mono pod and it works great with no malfuctions......yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Sarony Posted August 13, 2004 Share Posted August 13, 2004 The brand that seems to work the best for the most people is Sterling. Did somebody say they wanted to locate some 20, 30 & 40 rd Sterling mags? I have just a few and would like the best price I can achieve for them.

uscbigdawg Posted August 13, 2004 Share Posted August 13, 2004 Peter, If you've got Sterling 40's I'll consider taking a couple. Drop me a PM/e-mail and let's chatter! Rich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
