M1 Carbine 15 Round Magazines

I've tried a few mags in my M1 carbines....

Auto ordnance ones are really good, they work flawlessly.
KCI 5/30 also work very well.

the czechoslovak 5/10 magazines are not so great. Everyone I have causes a jam on the 3/4 round Ive tried to fix them but no dice. The retention slots on the mags are stamped in to high into the side o the magazine. The magazines end up sitting to low unless you keep a lot of pressure on the bottom while shooting.

5/15's good luck unless you can find some on the EE odds are you won't find them in Canada at all. Nobody seems to be importing them.
 
Carbine stuff is ITAR controlled due to the U.S. thinking it's an assault rifle. You cannot import a 15 round mag and due to the lack of demand, few places bother with 'em.
Haven't bothered with Carbine kit since they were put on the evil list. Try Epp's for pinned mags. They're an AO dealer.

Are they the ones corwin arms has??

I have a couple KCI 5/15s, very impressed by them.

Oh my god they finally banned him!!! It's like Christmas!
 
My Auto Ordnance M1 absolutely hates KCI mags constant jamming. On the other hand Czech made mags always work in my M1. My Friends Auto Ordnance M1 does not work on original military mags but works both on Czech made mags and KCI. I guess with Auto Ordnance M1 you will have to find out which ones your rifle likes
 
Yippee Ki Yay!

Just to clarify, the statement about m1 and parts being illegal to import - what is the truth behind this?

the truth is contact the us state department and see yourself

NO m1 carbine parts can be exported from the usa its not a new law been around for a long time you try it and get caught you can be charged in Canada and travelling to the usa or through their airspace will be over

It's been about 11 or 12 months since my last import of M1 carbine parts, but last year I made and received around a dozen orders from Numeric and Sarco for USGI M1 carbine parts and even imported a USGI M1 carbine receiver through prophet river, so if it's been stopped recently stateside, then that is indeed new.
 
Sorry, i'm looking for specific information not another generic "you're a bad man and gonna get in trouble reply" I skimmed the regs and could't find the answers so i called an importer.
The reply was we do it all the time, you own one don't you, how all the other parts and mags get here? - you just need an export lic let us know when your ready to order.

As a firearm owner in this over-regulated country is helps to know the actual laws not just what the word on the street says. That being said if anyone has info to the contrary feel free to let me know

cheers guys
