Best magazines?

MecGars that have GT springs are very good magazines. The very best are the WWII era "extruded" magazines, either marked Haenel Schmeiser or FXO. One of the extruded magazines found with a broken plastic bottom and resprung with GT springs and a replacement bottom would be the best you could have and would probably total about 200 dollars. Extruded was put into quotes because I understand they were actually a welded two piece construction. They can be identified by the machined rebate at the top of the mag as opposed to the flatenned out seam of the Imperial style magazine.
