| Posted 2 months ago I know nothing of those drum magazines or any for that matter. I have heard the Beta C-Mags are good quality. My experiences are don't buy magazines from Chear Than Dirt unless they say they are factory or made by a well known manufacturer of quality magazines. Have 90-100 rds on a rifle would be heavy. Sometimes the mag cinch I occassionally use makes a significant weight gain. Here's a link to a Beta Mag. The least expensive one I found thru a quick search was $230 ish http://www.auctionarms.com/search/displayitem.cfm?itemnum=8116208 You have the rest of your life to solve the problem, how long your life lasts depends on how well you do it - Clint Smith |

| Posted 2 months ago I own a Beta and have had zero issues with it. 100 rds does tend to add a substantial amount of weight, but with the Beta, it's evenly distributed and not all on one side. Word of caution...DO NOT EVER drop the Beta while loaded, it won't survive. Great danger lies in the notion that we can reason with evil. |
|
| Posted 2 months ago Good point about not dropping them. I haven't seen one survive the sandbox, but that's apples and oranges. |
|
| Posted 2 months ago Going thru 100 rounds from a Beta C-mag is a blast!

|
| Posted 2 months ago If you use the Beta-C mags a lot, you may want to keep a close eye on the magazine catch to make sure it's not being worn out/damaged prematurely from the additional weight put on it. |

| Posted 2 months ago It's a good magainze with the following proviso: It's not a battlefield or combat magazine and will perish if used in the field. It's stricly a range or plinking toy. It works well amd smoothly. If it was built as well as the Chinese drums imported for the AK and a handful for the Ar15, it would be wonderful but the Chinese are made to mil-spec from metal and this baby is plastic and fairly fragile. Use no lube on it. "I have been through some terrible things in my life, some of which actually happened!" - Mark Twain - |

If your that keen maybe you should get your self a belt fed beastie...LOL |

| Posted 2 months ago If you just got the cash to burn go ahead. I can't think of a situation where you'll ever need 100 rounds in one mag. Plus the 100 round mags are more of a headache than they're worth. Just get a few surplus mags with the green followers. To secure peace is to prepare for war.
