Are these mags any good?

Just got some mags in from Cope's, and was wondering if anyone knew anything about them. They're sealed in a plastic wrapper in a light coat of oil. Each one has a sticker that says "Made in Bulgaria". Spring is very strong, and has a polymer follower. Thought they were a pretty good deal for 13 bucks a pop. Anybody know the history on these?

Bulgarian mags are excellent mags....both steel and bulgy waffle mags.

Some of the best out there... although any of the combloc steel mags are going to be reliable. German, Hungarian, Romanian, Bulgarian etc are going to do fine and be as durable as your AK

They're very high quality. You can find Romanian 30rd for $9-10 each, but the Bulgarians have a much better finish and appearence. As far as functionality, I've almost never had trouble with any 7.62 Eastern European mags in decent shape.
