Any mag I have that does not feed well I throw away.  I do not believe in things like "range only" mags.  It either works, or it's trash.   
I always break all the clay pigeons,  some times its even with lead.

Exactly.
Too easy to get mixed in with good ones (I don't care how diligent you are, it's possible, if not probable).

I have a couple of AR mags I bought months ago from Academy on sale (they look like Magpuls) but have not tested them. Until I get the chance to run them, they stay in the original packaging because they look too similar in style and color to my Magpuls.

I expect it will come in the disease form, though. I'm susceptible to diseases, and you can't shoot a damned disease." ~ Judge Roy Bean, Streets of Laredo

For the Patriots of this country, the Constitution is second only to the Bible for most. For those who love this country, but do not share my personal beliefs, it is their Bible. To them nothing comes before the Constitution of these United States of America. For this we are all labeled potential terrorists. ~ Dean Garrison

I like the 20 round mags that Brownells sells under their brand....

I with you TAB. I think one of my Ruger Mark II mags was actually an old Mark I mag. I had problems with it so I tossed it on the ground and shot it a couple of times. Even if I was tempted to get it out of the trash and try fixing it I couldn't. I bought the right mag instead. I posted somewhere on the forum about the 2 POS-Mags, I mean Pro-Mags, that peed me off and I mashed them with a sledgehammer. Not even someone digging trash at the landfill deserved to get stuck with those pieces of junk.
""It may be laid down as a primary position, and the basis of our system, that every Citizen who enjoys the protection of a free Government, owes not only a proportion of his property, but even his personal services to the defence of it, and consequently that the Citizens of America (with a few legal and official exceptions) from 18 to 50 Years of Age should be borne on the Militia Rolls, provided with uniform Arms, and so far accustomed to the use of them, that the Total strength of the Country might be called forth at a Short Notice on any very interesting Emergency." - George Washington.
