Evike has been selling them for awhile now.
I'm waiting to see from someone here if it's worth buying?

I am waiting too! Evike has it the cheapest at $150 per box of 5. I dont know if we still have a filforce discount, but I also would like to know if it truly is any good before investing.

I looked at the Evike URL but it did not say if it included the speedloader adapter like the eBay auction set. Another thing I find disconcerting is that you cannot SEE the FF discount UNLESS you give them a credit card number first.

I'm anxious to check them out since they're way more lighter than our systema mags. the filforce discount still works! I bought the matrix systema mags from evike a few months ago, they're piece of crap! I had trouble with bb's not feeding at all. What a waste of money! I'm worried about spending $150 for plastic mags.

I was holding my tongue, lol.
From the reviews I read on ptw forum: 95 percent mostly fine, no super long term tests yet. Some few MINOR mags do not load smoothly, but that's expected. Systema original magazines fail to load after some extended usage.
The only issue is the long term usage, and these mags are too expensive.
I have a recommendation: what we can do is, have 5 people chip in and buy 2 box of 5 mags, then we each split it up so it will cost us only 60 to 70 bucks for 2 mags instead of 150 + shipping for 5.
Then, each take 2 mags and we all use the plastic mags as our main magazines whenever possible, and use it extensively, and then compare the rate of failure.
If it works out, then buy more. If not, it's only 60 to 70 bucks out to test them.

Whoever here wants those mags, lol.
It's tax season for me, so for small biz like me, it's pain season.

Got one box from evike. Here goes, five mags included, one has already a chip in the plastic right where the small screw holds both sides together right near where you load the bbs. It causes the mag to spew out the bbs as you load. Another mag also "separated" just enough during loading. So that makes scratch two.
The remaining three loaded well, shot well with no misfeed whatsoever. But again the plastic is really brittle so dropping it could easily spell disaster.
There you go guys. I think I saved you some money. Hehe

So 150 / 3 = 50 bucks per mag. Cool beans. Add shipping, so it's like 55 bucks per mag?

So Sabres would be the 'plastic' bodied alternative ?

That's pretty much about it Redbull. But don't know how long these would last though.
Boss, I haven't used sabre yet. Is it good?
