What a Country and a couple others sell 30 rd mags as "South African" origin. Most of them are not. Most of them are 30 rd FAL mags with a thin sheet metal wrap spot welded around the top of the mag.

That said, I DO have some and they DO work... a couple worked out of the box, several needed some tweaking.

I have two of those S African mags myself and I left one of them loaded over night to check for over pressure signs. What I found was that once unloaded the springs barely had enough energy to carry the follower to the top. SO I figured the springs were junk. So my thought is if Magpul or someone can produce some with proper chrome silica springs then perhaps we could get a better magazine. So I e-mailed Magpul and they said that it sounds interesting. I simply stated that there is a world full of HK's that need quality 30 round magazines. Weather they decide to act on it- is up to them.

Hk apparently makes 25rd HK91 magazines but where can they be found? Anyone ever see one?

I am thinking its a 20rd mag and he is wrong. Either way I have sent Erick a email asking for more information on the mag.

No MCP magazines around anymore? All steel and seemed to work OK.

I know where two are but for the price of them you could easily purchase near a hundred 20 round magazines. It would be nice if someone would start cranking out some quality 30 round magazines.

Last I looked Wolff Gunsprings made a 30 rd mag spring for the 7.62 NATO mags. I have a SA and it works fine and also some of the late 1980s welded jobbers and one one out of maybe 10 did not fit right

Link to those Wolff Springs? I couldn't find them.
