Seeing as I'm researching .308/7.62 semi auto rifles, I figure I should find out what brand magazines are the best for a couple different rifles.
My options that are on the table are a National Match/Super Match M1A, DSArms FAL, PTR-91 or an AR-10 type rifle set up in a sniper/tactical style.
I already know what magazines I would get for the FAL and the PTR-91 as both rifles have an easy to get supply of magazines at good prices.
My question involves the AR and the M1A. I've seen some magazines for both go for upwards of $50 a piece. I'd rather not have to pay that much for a magazine as I want to have a decent number of them on hand.
For capacity I decided that the 20 round mags are what I'd like to have and I'd rather avoid plastic magazines as I don't yet trust them. (I know a lot of you are big fans of the polymer magazines and you think it's ignorant or old fashioned to use steel/aluminum but that's what I want.)
Are there any aftermarket brand magazines for either one of these rifles that doesn't cost an arm and a leg and is reliable enough to trust to work when it's needed?
Let me know what you know/think about the different brands.
