I'm looking for a couple more mags for my Shadow 2 and ran into these cheap ones...
At $36.99 each, they are a great deal...
If the fit and function is good of course....

Anyone using these????
 
I have a few they work well in the shadow 1 & 2 but you cant change the base pads with aluminum ones the mag bodies are to short if you run the stock metal pads all is well. They are of Italian manufacture my guess is Meggar generic.

for another $4 you can get the best mags on the market, MecGar. same as the ones the guns come with now. There really is no reason to consider those cheaper mags in the gun. If they were $15 each, maybe.
 
Ha-Haaaa, outstanding prices on an out of stock item... :) Have you had a look at corwin-arms?
 
the Corwin mags while functional are not up to the same standards as the MecGars. The finishing on them is subpar, this includes the machining of the feed lip area cutout and overall dimensions. CZ chose MecGar to make all their new gen mags for a reason. A good mag will last for years, why go cheap?
 
Plus with the MecGars, you can add their excellent Plus 2 basepads. Probably the cheapest and most durable basepads you can find.

Rusty Wood Trading has the MecGars in stock but they are a little more money $39.99 I think.

I own factory cz mags, mecgar mags, and the corwin arms "made in Italy" mags. The quality of the corwin mags is excellent, the manufacturing is definitely not sub par. They're pretty much indistinguishable from the factory mags, other than the floor plate.

It's about -30 outside right now so i'm in no hurry.
If they are still not in stock in 3 months i'll look at other options.
But for $35 i'll go with the original ones preferably.

Is that baseplate a thin metal one to jab into your hand when doing quick mag changes? It looks pokey. :)

They are a little pokey, I suppose? Lol. I haven't had an issue with them, but that's not to say that there isn't the possibility for one.

If their too pokey, I could 3d print base pads for them.:p
