Well, the best ones in my opinion are Magpul's. But they are not the best price.

Yeah i'm just looking for some cheap, decent, mags. I've  looked at MAG and saw pretty good reviews. on Asgi though there were quite a few negative reviews on them.

You just need to lube and break them in thoroughly before use. Basically spray silcone lube into them and load and unload about 5 times for each mag. Make sure you us 100% silicone cause anything else will corode the inside of the mag. I haven't had any problems with mine over the last 2 years of use. And they've seen plenty of abuse.

I just got eight Mag mid caps from Evike...good shipping and usually good customer service from my experience.  All eight came with perfect finish and worked good out of the box.  Then again I did lube and unload each magazine twice before use.

I got 5 metal 120 round M4 mags from Airsoft Megastore for 40 bucks. I got the broken D-boys ones and they came with the replacement parts to fix them. Took me 3 seconds per mag to fix. They may still have them.

I just bought King Arms boxset of 10 for 65 dollars.

They suck.  Don't feed in either of my G&Gs, my KWA, my DBoys, or my A&K.

Ouch maybe you got a bad batch, I just happened to buy the 5 pack since I needed some in a hurry and those were the only ones in stock at the time. So far so good for me, I've used them in an ICS L85 and a CA CQBR, and I haven't lubed them yet. (will probably do it sometime later on)

I run King Arms through my Echo1 MP5. They only gave me problems because I was stupid and didn't lube them. But after I did they work great. Although they weren't my first choice. For some reason ASGI said MAG wouldn't work in my rifle, but i've never used their m4 mags.

I like MAG midcaps. (or at least the M4 mags, I haven't used the other)  STAR G36 mags are complete crap, so I personally would stay away from STAR mags.  (their armalite mags might be okay, IDK..) 

You do have to break in the mag midcaps though.  (by lubing them and then loading them and unloading them several times to disperse the lube and remove the excess)
