From the sources I use to get airsoft stuff, a box of 10 STAR 30 round mags for the M16 cost 90 + shipping. The MAG brand ones cost exactly the same, through the means I get my airsoft stuff from. From what I read and understood, the M16 type mags were only 100 rounds. So you pay equal price for either the capacity to carry 300 or 800 rounds. I'd rather sacrifice the two mags for the extra 500 rounds. Also, UNCompany lists the construction as plastic, so I would guess that they are basically the same as the STAR 30 round mags. I have 4 of the STARs, and although they function flawlessly, and look "not-horrible" in my SR-16, they are VERY lightweight and feel very "toyish". But at about 9 bucks a pop, they ain't half bad.
