    Get either AGP or Surefire. Both are better than Promag 10 rnd box magazine.

      The promags need to be broken in to work good. You also need to file the the part that touches the mag lock to get a good fit. Ask me how I know. They say it's because of the different tolerances that come from the saiga manufacturing.

        My promags work good, but I would probably just get whatever was cheaper so I could get more mags.

            i have a few AGP and they work flawlessly, but i have heard of some people needing to break them in and then they worked great.

                  My Pro-Mags needed a little filing to lock in place and one needed to clear the bolt. After that, they run fine, no problems. Beginners mag issues too...

                    Assembly video? Where's the video? The 10 rd mags don't come assembled already?

                      my promag 10 rd. use to stick often...meaning it would bind when trying to push the next shell up in the magazine. i would stay away from promag.

                        Saiga mags need to be broken in before they work good. Maybe they have to use softer springs to avoid deforming the plastic shot shells. On the agp video they tell you to remove material from the inside to speedup the break in process and get rid of the binding. You can do that to the promags to make them work better. You should watch the video the agp girl is very informative.

                          I have almost 700 rounds through 3, 2nd generation Promags with no issues. It will say 2nd generation on the packaging.

                            my AGP mags that I just got came in assembled already. I disassembled it and found the inside to be smooth already. I don't know if I have to do something else prior to using, except a little filing to fit in the mag well. Anybody who did file theirs first prior to using it?
