Opinion on eagle 30 rd 10-22 mags

bigdog1

What is the scoop on these? I have used Ramline and Butler creek mags with good success, but these appear" cheap." Anybody else have any experience with these????

Most people familiar with 10/22 mags would rate them higher than Ram-Line mags and about equal with Butler Creek mags. Some consider them the best. They have some nice features the other magazines don't have, such as the steel rear locking pin, the clean-out door, and the single stack design. Single stack mags are considered inherently less prone to jams than double stack mags.

Depending on the firearm you use them in (the Tec-22 and AMT Lightning being other guns that take 10/22 magazines) I think they are close to the best or the best. To me (excluding drums) the steel lipped Butler Creeks are the best and the Eagle next. But again, it depends on the firearms. Neither of these is superior to the Ram-Line if used inthe Tec-22 pistol. In fact, the Butler Creeks will fail miserably in the Tec-22. For the Ruger 10/22, the Eagle is a fine magazine.



To err is human, to moo is bovine.

I have 3 30 rd Eagles ($9.95 each, give an idea how long I have had them). They have worked really well for me. I especially like the clean-out door feature.

Have 3 Eagle mags, all have worked without fail in whichever of 4 10-22's I use them in.
