1fast5gp Posted February 23, 2013 Report Share Posted February 23, 2013 Anyone have any first hand experience with the Israeli (IMI) polymer 30 round mags for the AR15? Good quality? If they are the older Orlite mags, they are junk. Unless you are getting them for dirt cheap, I'll put them in the same shitty category as thermelts mags. IMI metal mags they have.. they are nice mags. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjjxlr8 Posted February 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2013 My friend is considering purchasing 500 brand new mags and I think they are these: http://www.cheaperthandirt.com/product/MAG-790 Are these junk? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's IMI Defense? lol Never heard of them. I don't think they are any part of IMI or IWI. And those are not the Olrite Mags. But for 39.99, I wouldn't touch one. And anything you buy from CTD is automatic Junk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jjjxlr8 Posted February 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2013 My friend wasn't interested in buying from cheaper than dirt. He was looking at a deal for around $3000/500 IMI polymer mags. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schmuckingham Posted February 24, 2013 Report Share Posted February 24, 2013 Never heard of IMI, but I have heard of IWI Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjjxlr8 Posted February 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2013 Never heard of IMI, but I have heard of IWI IMI is Israeli Military Industries. They manufacture weapons (among other things) for the Israeli Defense Force and used to make semi-auto Galil rifles for export to the US back in the 80's. A quality organization, or used to be anyway. IWI (Israeli Weapons Industries) used to be the small arms division of IMI until they were purchased from the Israeli government by a private company in 2005. Note the "IMI-ISRAEL" engraved on my Galil... http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k239/jjjxlr8/IMG_3645_zps6e012d5a.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
