I have been trying to contact a local dealer about there Check. Mate. Industries. (CMI) magazines. I haven't been able to get a response over the phone or E-mail. Im looking to purchase 10 5/20 M14 mags and I have a concern about how they are pinned. I need to know if the CMI mags coming from Dlask are pinned internally or with a rivet from the back. i just dont want to shell out the cash and find out they use the same method that KCI uses to pin theirs.
 
Rivet at the outside on the 3 I got from them about a month ago. That's the way I like them personally.

They have a few left "that's the last box" so maybe no more for a while.
 
Irunguns has the checkmate mags for the m1a/m14/m305 platform as well. I purchased one and was very pleased. It feeds flawlessly in both m1a and norc m305. It was pinned tastefully with a rivet in the back of the mag, very clean. I bought the 5/25, looks and runs great. Not too cheap but not crazy expensive either.
 
I got 4 CMI and they are definitely of a better construction than the KCI I had and about on par with my original 5/10 mag from Springfield. Properly pinned at 5.5 and not 5 flush. Good tension in the spring as well.

I'd love to read a review comparing all makes!
