Buying mags before Black Cloud, need advice

[Fenix031882]

I have been looking at Mid-Cap mags (I heard they are the best for reliability) and I need your help in finding the better one.

Option 1:

Magpul PTS 75rd Mid-Cap EMag for M4 M16 Series Airsoft AEG Rifles - Black (One)

Features:
-Lightweight DuPont Polymer Magazine for High Speed operations.
-Built with new enhanced hard ABS with authentic texture and details.
-Dual-sided MagLevel bullet windows.
-Single Stack Precision Feeding.
-Stealth Operation. No Rattling.
-Ribbing Design for Quick Draw.
-Genuine Magpul Product.
-Magazine Capacity: 75~85 rounds / magazine
- Realistic Weight. Designed to provide a realistic milsim gaming experience.
- Allowing 30 round load to meet training requirements.

Option 2:

(Much less info on this one)
King Arms M4 130 rounds L5 Style Translucent Magazine for M4 Series Airsoft AEG (One)

Capacity: 130 Rounds, 6mm Airsoft BBs
Material: Translucent Dark Brown Polymer
Manufacturer: King Arms

I like both of them, and they're prices are $9 for the magpul and $18 for the King Arms.  So which is the better buy?  (I plan on buying 2 to go with my 4 hi-caps)

I'm going to let this thread to continue despite all the content was copied and pasted from a non-supporting company. In the future if you want to add a link, picture, or text from a product pull it from the manufactures website. 

In this situation the website would be ---->  http://www.magpul-pts.com/catalog/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=4_22&products_id=62

I'd probably go with the Magpul mid caps. I was pretty impressed by them at last years Shot Show.

I'll edit it out Shifty, the only reason I put it like that was to get maximum input based on maximum info (that and as much as I love SOGO $9 midcaps are hard to pass up if they are worth a damn)

Post a review once you get your mags. I'm sure people would like to know what you find.

I agree with shifty... magpul all the way

I've got a box of the King Arms mags.  I love them.  Because they're translucent I can see how full the mag is at a glance--something nice in the field.  You will have to break them in but that's true of any mag.

I only have a hi-cap Magpul M4 magazine so I can't speak about their midcaps.  The 120 Emags (those are the ones with the fake brass in the window, aren't they?) do look sharp and I would like to have a few at some point.  I've heard good things about all the Magpul M4 magazines.

I think you won't go wrong with ANY of these choices.

@Joe:

I found the E-Mags for $9 new, that is a very very alluring price point to me.

+1 for those Lancer systems replica l5 mags. extremely reliable!

I would go with the PMAGS, the RS ones are xtremely durable, my buddy crushed one in a ten ton press and it would still feed his AR.

I ended up helping a friend out and buying his "Mag" brand mid caps, in the end I felt more compelled to help a friend out rather than just buy new.

[Joe]

No problem, Dave.  Glad you were able to help a friend.

Just an FYI, King Arms actually makes both of the mags in discussion. So, they're both of equal quality I'm sure. It woudl just come down to your personal prefference on the asthetics of each magazine.

I will still probably buy the mag brand mags at some point, they look pretty freaking awesome and the price point is very compelling

[Shifty]

Mags bought.
Interesting info.
