    Circle 10 5.56 magazine.

    here's my review in case anyone is curious. just my opinion

    PROS
    Feeds reliably in my AK-74
    Feels solid
    Anti-tilt
    Steel floorplate covers the bottom of the mag bodycompletely to protect it during mag drops
    Reinforced magazine latch and trunnion latch.

    CONS
    Came smelling / feeling like cosmoline.
    No reinforced feed lips

      I'd consider the cosmoline smell a plus, personally.

        Great mags ! The only ones I will ever use on my ak74 556 conversion



        Built it myself with a akb flat and 556 conversion barrel with a numbers matching unissued bulgarian ak74 parts kit

          when I ordered I shipped it to my father in law in a free state who stuck a dowel in it (it came as a 2/30 lol!) and mailed it to me.

            while it may sound like i'm bias, but for the amount of money I paid I'm not impressed. I will probably keep converting PMAGs.

              also after seeing your pictures I just notice that this mag has a hole pre-drilled for a rivet hole...WTF!

                Its not a rivet hole ... You must be new to aks . It's a peep hole to know when the mag is full . You can see the cartrages inside threw that hole

                  Thank you. And yes I am fairly new to the AK platform. I'm sure you were too at once.

                  Anyway I think a peephole is kind of stupid on a clear magazine. Just a place for dirt to get in.

                      They use the same molds for all colors of the mag , also the hole acts as a drain hole.
