Apologies in advance if this survey was already done recently.
I was browsing on the C Products website and noted that they make both aluminum and stainless steel AR magazines. I've been satisfied with their steel ones. I'm also satisfied with plastic Magpul P-Mags, Israeli Orlite mags, and various generic steel and aluminum mags. My experience has been that all the ones with modern followers have worked fine.
Here's my question - do you have a clear preference? Assuming there's a choice among good quality, reliable AR15 magazines, what material of construction is best for a person that goes to the range a lot but not in the "field," but could some day need them for something more than plinking?
