MP5 Magazines?
I recently picked up an MP5/AP5 and it seems to work great with no malfunctions using the magazine that came with it. So I tried to save some money buying extra magazines and ordered the AC Unity magazines from Atlantic Firearms and they turned it into a single shot but do let me practice lots of malfunction clearing. Anyway, what magazines are working for all of you? Any cheaper alternatives than $80 HK mags?

Gun show in York today, run up there and see what you can find. I haven't tried all of the mags I've gathered over the years but none of those that I have tried has failed to function. I've gotten a few no-namers at Oaks but I'm not sure that H&K puts names on them any more.

AC Unity is garbage. Don't do it (too late I guess).
HK mags will often go on sale for closer to 60-70.
My range mags are usually POFs, but they're harder to find nowadays. I've had no issues with them. I paid $30 each for mine and wish I got more.
I heard that newest gen KCIs work. I have older ones and they aren't great.
MKE metal mags are supposedly decent too.

MKE mags work for me as well as HK mags.
Today was a good day!

Re: MP5 Magazines?
HK mags are of course the best, but MKE and POF are also just as reliable in my experience. Avoid pretty much everything else.
