Personally, I prefer either Okay mfg mag bodies with new springs and Magpul followers, or PMAGs.

Ive heard of guys having problems with the HK mags as soon as they hit the dirt, personally for my money ill just get three PMAGS instead... Although with upgraded springs and followers i havent had any problems out of my issued mags

We use both the HK mags and regular army issue mags as well.

Honestly, I have about the same failure rate with both kinds of magazines.

The advantage of the HK mags is that they are a lot tougher than the aluminum usgi mags. It is easy to screw up a mag when you and your rifle are knocking around in and out of a vehicle all day.

I usually keep an HK mag in my weapon because it gets beat up pretty bad, and the regular magazines in my kit to keep the weight down.

I like the D&H Black Teflon mags with the Magpul follower.

If you have a S&W M&P don't buy the Magpul PMags. They don't fit.

if money is no option than h&k mags.

the new pmags look pretty darn good, and only about $5 more than usgi mags. i use usgi mags and i have had little issues and since i have so many if i do have an issue than i replace it.

I would have said USGI, but I've become a recent convert to the cult of PMAG.

I use only USGI mags built by companies who build for the military... "mil spec" doesn't mean anything beware of cheap mags! PMAG's are great to.
