AWLAZS Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 I have never heard of thermold mags are they any good? The local shop has a bunch of them. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
outerlimits Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 Had a couple about 20 yrs back...broke the feed lips easily just loading the gun. Maybe they are better now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve RA Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 Yes, some of them are. Master Molder was going to sell them to the Canadian Govt for their military but could not get a suitable deal done. Then a deal was worked out for some sort of license or agreement so Canada could make them. Then the big problem was/is that they manufactured them out of a less suitable plastic than Master Molder - Wilson, N.C. -used for the ones they made/make here. Main thing is to run from any with a Maple Leaf or anything Canadian on them. I used to use the 30/45 round ones and they worked flawlessly. Just picked up 7 of the 20 rounders and a connector clip for a couple of them for $50.00 a few weeks ago from CDNN. Probably out of stock now.

jr. 3 gunner Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 Picked up 8 of the 20 rounders and 3 30 rounders from numrich couple weeks ago. Haven't tried them out but they look like they'll at least make decent practice mags. Got some Battlemags for actual matches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alaskapopo Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 I had some during the last ban and they worked fine just not durable. They had a nickname Thermelts because they would melt if you got the gun to hot. Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AWLAZS Posted January 28, 2013 Author Share Posted January 28, 2013 If you hit there home page they accept orders with a two week wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve RA Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Think the Thermelts were the Canadian ones, they had a reputation of doing that if much full auto fire was indulged in. Basically, because the plastic they used wasn't as good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Round_Gun_Shooter Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 I like them, I use them and have one of the 30/45 mags. Nice idea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSnSC Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 The Canadian mags are the "thermelt mags". The Wilson NC, mags are Zytel and have a much higher melt temp. Ive got several that Ive had for a while with no issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
