i'm getting a beretta 9mm and i was wondering how much is too much to pay for a hi-cap magazine? not worried if it's factory, as long as it works. thanks!

The Asian Military mags from CDNN run about $29.95 and they have a good reputation. I've got some U.S.A. mags that work fine and they cost around $15.00. With U.S.A. mags, you might have to smooth up the follower to remove the mold marks before they will work but mine function reliably. After the 10 shot rule went into effect, I bought one of the 30 round U.S.A. mags and it works, too. For reliability, I go with Mec-Gar. The ten round mags are $15.95 from AJAX and are top quality. Don't get carried away about magazine capacity. Shooting a lot doesn't make up for shooting good. Buy Mec-Gars and spend the difference on practice ammo.
