AK-74 Star Mags

[Ludo.Kressh]

I had recently read a review on this forum that the 600rd Ak-74 Star mag is a decent mag exceptional quality mag.

I have also heard that the 70rd standar Ak-74 mags are great quality.  But as with all low-caps, if you top em off the spring's power is reduced over time(correct me if I am wrong).

I currently own a Spets, and I want to stick with asthetic authenticity(meaning I want to use ak-74 mags over 47).  As for sporting 30rd mags for the real-life aspect, I have heard nothing but trouble.

So I am asking you all should I get the 70rd, or 600rd.  In financial terms, getting the 600rd is a helluva lot cheaper, and like 2 of those bad larry's would last a couple games.  If I got the standards they are more expensive, and I need more mag pouches and all that.

So in terms of quality(ignoring the real-life like trait of using standards), and from personal experience, which would you guys suggest I get?  And if possible point me in the direction were I can find the cheapest ones.  Right now I know AEX sells the 600rds for 30$ a pop.  I haven't found any low prices on standards however.

-Thanks!

I have 3 70 rd star mags and their better than the tm. They fit a little tighter and they feed great.

Ludo, I own 8 of the standard mags. At first they didn't work right(a quick modification that either me or studdermonkey can show you), but once I got them working they work GREAT! I'm in love with them. Infact, for the next LC I'm buying 5 more. And at 15 bucks a pop, you can't beat the price.
