What is the quality of these? Has anyone compared them to the ones from NC Star? Those were trash, I don't want to get taken twice.

Pretty much everything NcStar produces is junk. I've got a couple hundred of the I.O.T. clips and have used them quite a bit, I haven't had a single one give me problems yet. None of them are bent or unable to load rounds.

I had also been a victim of the NC Star product, thank goodness I had only bought one box from them. The I.O.T. quality is more than satisfactory with excellent cartridge retention and no broken end tabs. 110% satisfied. Mike

Ps) I just saw the exact same ones at Joann fabric. They aren't as cheap but maybe you could go take a look at them!

I have had the same experience. They are cheaply made, I will not order them again.

You dont even want to know, they are so not good at all. I have bought them twice and is always the same, they dont even receive the charge, so if you havent bought them dont even think it about buying them.

We purchased this lot from a military surplus store in North Carolina, they are stamped with USMC so I'm sure they are genuine. I've probably sold over 30 in the past year with no returns. The price is low since I bought them as a bulk lot from the store.Thanks fro the interest.Patrick TN Tactical Supply

First set I ordered were gorgeous and I would def say yes you could wear them but I reordered 2 more and they were horrific. Natty and itchy and the hair was falling out so I would say no. When you order these your taking a chance on them being really good quality or terrible quality.

I had two different friends pickup CX-300's on my recommendation. Both opted for the < $20 retailers, and both ended up with fakes.Generally speaking, if you bought them off eBay you can bet that it's a counterfeit, which I've begun calling "Fakeheisers". These are good knockoffs; unless you had a pair of real Sennheisers to compare them with it'd be hard to tell the difference in appearance without disassembly. The sound though, is far, *far* inferior to the real thing. If you want Sennheiser quality, buy from a reputable dealer. If you try to get the lowball deal, you might as well go for any old generic Chinese phones instead. I had two different friends pickup CX-300's on my recommendation.

I was shocked by the varying quality of my latest order. Mine, too, were thin and cheap. I am not sure if the quality has improved.

NickI was also worried about ordering fakes. I saw that amazon said they came from Sylvania so I ordered them. When I got them I looked at the packaging and they appear to be ok but I'm not an expert. They work fine.

Nope! I got mine a while back and now for certain (Because I've tested them many times.) know that these are NOT Fake. :D

I wondered the same thing. After checking out some other reviewers I think the ball bearing units overall were in better quality I think. Also someone mentioned something about sleeve bearings being mounted a certain way that would cause early failure or something of that nature. Either way i don't think it was a huge price difference extra for ball bearings. I'd get these again. They are good.

Ok.. I just finished returning mine... they are shoddy crap Dont order them.

I don't get it. Mine are awesome. The color, fit, texture all top notch. I've had them on the same 1911 build since I received them. I also wanted a set of black on OD green but accidentally order them the opposite, The customer service was great, I set the set back, it was corrected, No problems. I'm sorry and shocked to hear of your experience.

So far they have held up. I am sure they must have been dropped at one time or another. If you have heard this, maybe try another brand. My grandsons have had them since December and haven't heard of any problems. If I hear of any, I will post it.

Just wanted to pass along that Amazon took back the opened package. Others I've listen to didn't sound anything like the crappy ones I received.Amazon has first rate customer service. I'm going to try a different pair from here. Any suggestions?

The ones I got were authentic for sure. I've seen the PTS version - these were in the right packaging and are solid. They're identical to ones purchased from other official Magpul vendors.

YES. They're strong enough. I agree with you James. They really don't look up to the job. I've had & used mine now for over a year and I love them. They're TOTALLY reliable. Do yourself a favor James. These will work. At about $ 8.00 a pack - for me that's right on the cusp "acceptable risk" (a little more money than I'd casually risk.) That said - I'm telling you James - they will exceed your expectations. They're dynamite. Get them! You'll be glad you did! If possible, keep me posted. Best of luck! :-)
