We set out to find the best AK 47 mags you can buy right now. We decided to tackle this topic in the most detailed and thorough way possible so that you could buy your next cache of magazines with the highest level of confidence. There are some decently informative YouTube videos covering a limited variety of AK mags but I’ve yet to see one that includes every magazine from the best to the worst. Like a lot of AK guys, we were annoyed by the lack of real-world information out there in regards to which AK mags are actually good and worth spending your hard-earned money on? Many blogs we’ve come across in our research are peddling sub-par magazines with copy and paste product descriptions in an attempt to garner a sale. There are so many AK magazines available to purchase on the market but no guide that tells you what you should or shouldn’t get. So buckle up and take notes because you don’t want to stock up on trashy magazines!Įxoc Tactical’s AK-47 Magazine Tier Guide:
We’ve tested each and every one of these magazines for you to give you our perspective on which mags are the best go-to-war options, which mags are good for range practice or training, and which ones to avoid altogether. Most of the pictures in this post are from our own collection. In this article, we’re going to help our readers classify the different types and grades of magazines available on the market. The United States was the last player to get into the AK magazine market and some do a pretty good job at it while others… not so much Many of those countries have followed the original magazine designs closely while others have made slight deviations from the original. Since then, many Eastern European and East Asian countries adopted the AK-47 along with the magazine designs that originated from Kalashnikov’s motherland, the former U.S.S.R.
TULA AK 47 BAKELITE MAGAZINE FULL
75mm Type 1 Ribbed magazine before the first AK-47s went into full production.Īfter several iterations of the sheet metal magazines with those easily identifiable ribs stamped into the sides for added rigidity, the AG4 (aka “Bakelite”) mags were introduced, not to replace the stamped mags but as a lighter alternative to the stamped versions. Too heavy, it appears, since it was replaced by the thinner.
The Slab-Side has a 1mm thick steel wall and is ultra-rugged, and quite heavy, as a result. The original AK 47 magazine was manufactured in 1948 and came to be known as the “Slab-Side” because of its smooth sidewalls. Like the Kalashnikov rifle, the AK magazine was designed to be rugged, reliable, and stupid simple.
