Any info on these? I was wondering about these when I seen them friday night in an e-mail. After hearing the South Korean made 30 and 40 rounders were kinda cheesy I was wondering how these were.

Know what you mean, most likely low quality.

Isn't this the same price the Bulgarian made drums were selling for? For that price (for unsure quality) I'll stick with 20/30/40 rounders.

Hey guys, I had got a few of the bulgy drums and liked them. Was wondering about the korean ones and thinking of getting a few. What was the issues with the regular box mags? Was thinking of adding some to the collection seeing ass they can still be gotten cheep.

I've not seen any straight-forward reviews on the South Korean AK mags.

There have been some forum posts with obvious unfactual statements such as "the mags are made from magnetic aluminum" and "have glued feedlips" - neither of which lend credence to the reviewer's negative statements regarding the mags IMHO.

For instance, the very weak magnetism properties of aluminum are well known, even at the grade school level:
Quote:
Paramagnetic materials are metals that are weakly attracted to magnets. Aluminum and copper are such metals. These materials can become very weak magnets, but their attractive force can only be measured with sensitive instruments.
[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

Other than some kind of jingoistic loathing of South Korean products, I haven't seen any argument as to why they can't make a good mag. Some of the posters actually have stated that the SK mags seem a bit lighter than Combloc mags, but that they worked well.

I plan on buying at least a couple to make up my own mind.

A couple 30/40 rounders I hope. I'd hate to dish out $150 and find out they were no count. If I could get my hands on one it would be easier to make a decision on them.
