Are they worth it?

Are the Springfield mags worth the price vs generic mag looks like $55 vs $14?

No. CMI makes the Springfield mags, so save your money and buy them instead.

As far as USGI goes - there are so many counterfeits these days it's hard to tell if you're getting ripped off.

44mag seems to have the best deal that I have seen. I just ordered several from them. I looked around the net a little and this was the best deal I found.

I bought a bunch from 44mag over a year ago with no problems so far. As stated above, beware of crap in disguise.
