Default Gas M9 Mag question

Okay, so I have a Tokyo Marui M9 GBB, and I was looking to buy an extra magazine or two. My friend broke the current mag I have now, and I superglued it, but I rather not use it that way because with my luck the piece will break off and jam inside the slide.

So my question is, who makes decent M9 mags? I know your first reaction will probably be "Buy another TM mag you fool!" but I can't at the moment. I heard KJW Mags are decent, and that they will work in TM M9s. Can anyone verify this?

Thanks.

I know some people that used a couple KJ mags in TM guns. But over the years I used my TM M9 I only used TM mags. They can be had cheap if you look around.

Damn straight, Squeeze. My KJW M9 has been the best, and its mags have been the only reliable ones I've owned.

I am looking for new mags, so would they still be cheap? I can only find them from US based retailers for around $40 before S+H.

I believe I got mine from ShortyUSA for $30. I usually buy from them if they have what I need because they're pretty close, so shipping is wicked fast.

I was actually referring to Minjin's post in my last post, you just posted seconds before I did Killedbyagirl. Thanks for the link though.

I found them on airsplat for $20, and as horrible as airsplat has been for me, I'm hoping they are smart enough to not mess up something as simple as a mag .


As for the wuality of the pistol itself, my team mate had one and loved it. He then sold it to my other teammate and replaced it with Sig variants.

Thanks for the help so far.

Ah, ok. Yeah, good luck with AirSplat. I had ordered a bunch of Systema internals from them and they sent me several ICS parts instead.

...didn't know if that type of thing was a trend with them or not.

AirSplat is just as bad as Evike, I wouldn't use that online store if I were you.

I used Airsplat once and they were alright, Evike though... Stay away from them. For the 2-3 times that I ordered from them in the past, I had to personally call them each time to find out why my order hadn't been processed.

Yeah, airsplat is pretty lame, but like I said, I hope "2x KJW M9 GBB Mag" is simple enough.

I hear they're bad but my dad hasn't had any problem with multiple orders from them.

Yeah, lol. I heard that they do that a lot, sounds suckish. Like I said, my dad has had decent experiences with them, other than one big incident.

Hahaha ironically enough, I replaced my M9 with a Sig... and a 1911. The most I paid EVER for a TM M9 mag was $45 Canadian. Cheapest was around $20.
