Intro
Cheap and reliable are two things that typically do not go together. In this case cheap and reliable AR-15 magazines. The following is the cheapest AR-15 magazine that I have found to be reliable.
Do they work?
Hell yes they do. I have at this point run hundreds of rounds through my set of four magazines. They have continued to work and feed flawlessly. Slow fire, rapid fire, factory rifles, and home builds.
How cheap are they?
Very cheap! At the time of this blog they are $4.99 each
What brand are they?
SHK (These are heavy duty steel body magazine with a gray anti-tilt follower, rust resistant finish and rugged dent resistant construction)
Where do I get them?
globalordnance.com
What is wrong with them?
The only downside I can see is they weigh a bit more than similar magazines. For example they are about 3.25 ounces heavier than a Magpul PMAG M2 (empty weights). If you are an ounces equal pounds and pounds equal pain kind of person, then you might pass on these
