Saiga 12 - 12 Round Mags
 
I currently have 2 of the AGP 10 Rounders, both have worked flawlessly. I was looking to get 2 more when I noticed the 12 rounders were out.

I looked around the net to see if I could find info on their reliability but turned up nothing. If you were in the market for 2 more mags would you go AGP 10 or Surefire 12?

I have them all. AGP and surefire mags both work just fine, but I feel the surefire mags are just truly too damn long. I prefer to use my AGP mags because of this.

Also the surefire mags can actually hold 13 rounds but are hard to load then on a closed bolt.

Thanks for the info. That's the main thing that makes me want to hold off on the Surefire 12 is just the damn length. IMO the AGP 10 is to long so I'm sure the 12 looks silly. But on the other hand 13+1 from a semi auto 12 gauge is pretty badass.

Are You sure it is wise to cram a extra round in a mag like that ??

I would assume the additional pressure on the springs may come back to haunt you in due time.

It is fine even according to the manufacturer. They designed it so it could hold 12 with plenty of room to load on a closed bolt while all the other ones for the S12 seem to be designed to hold X easily on an open bolt. Happens that the 12 rder holds 13 rds on an open bolt.
