"I got the black Flash Mag variant, and it isn't great. The winding cord is metal and the rest is plastic. It came manufactured to not feed. The BBs can't be pushed up through the end of the magazine because they push the plastic on the inside apart whenever you wind it up, and it releases most of the tension.
I want to like this magazine, it looks and feels good overall. However there are definitely some functionality problems. I'm giving it 3 stars because all though my magazine did not function at all, I haven't used the high or mid cap, and the outside quality is pretty good.
FLASH MAG REVIEW:
Good:
* Exterior quality is pretty good
* It fits pretty tightly, so the high-cap and mid-cap are good fits.
Mediocre:
* The clear plastic is somewhat fogged, making it hard to see into the BB well
* Sharp corner on the bottom of the mag makes taking the cap for the winding cord off painful if you aren't careful where you position your hand
* The cap for the bottom of the mag slides off, so you might lose it if you set it down or put it in a loose pocket
* Plastic flakes (?) fall out of the winding cord when you wind it at first, which made me think I was grinding up something, which appears to have been the plastic holder for the cord.
Bad:
* It wouldn't feed past the first few rounds out of the box. I took the mechanism out of the shell, and what looks like would happen is that the pressure of the BBs in the feeding tube would be too much, and the middle of that, where there is nothing holding the two halves of the internals together, would split apart and refuse to pressurize any further. The first round or 3 would release fully pressurized, and the rest wouldn't have enough energy to get out of the magazine.
* The winding cord catches pretty frequently 1/4 of its length of the way out on the return trip, requiring you to hit it or be either gentler or more forceful, typically more forceful, on the cord going back in. It seems like there's a gear on the inside that's getting caught against the inside of the shell
* My BB catch nub came cracked and with a chunk missing out of the end, not sure if it's gonna hold up to high pressures
