Who do we like for M1 Carbine mags?
Looking for some mil-surp 15 rounders to feed mine, who do we like for these? Thanks.

EDIT: If anybody has one or two mil-surp 15's they would sell feel free to email me as well. Thanks guys.

Browse gun shows and gun shop “junk boxes” the most reliable by far in my experience are usgi 15 round

I've had no problems with the Korean KCI mags. I've shot hundreds of rounds using these mags. I have a collection of GI mags and they work just as good as the KCI mags and vice versa.

KCI mags work better than GI mags in my rifles. I've replaced springs etc. and GI mags just aren't very good for these.

I've always stuck with GI mags other than some of the aftermarket 30 rounds. Some of the aftermarket 30's work well and some not so well.

I have a khar m1 carbine. It likes the khar mags. I only have 3. When i had an old universal and an old Winchester i used gi mags. They preferred the straight 15 rounders over the bent 25's.

Another vote for the KCI mags, never had any issues. My GI mags are usually gtg but some have a hard time retaining the floor plate.

I have six 15 round KCI mags for the range - never had an issue. I have a lot of USGI mags but save them.

Any USGI would be fine.
