Well, you and KG please chuck your 'bad' magazines into a box and when it is full or you guys accumulate ten of them, just send them to me. I will pay the shipping.

Have seen too many magazines not work, then do work, then not work etc. Mostly with M-4s. Have put the same magazines into M-16A2's or even my own variety of AR-15s and they functioned just fine.

I can count on one hand the number of issued magazines that were so poorly made they would not feed with an issued M-16A2. If they are being pushed through an M-4, my bets would go with the magazine being just fine.

The M-4 is a design compromise that walks the edge of reliability.

So please do send me your 'bad' magazines as you see fit. I will certainly put them to use.
