    Will the mags marked M2 fall out?

    I read somewhere that the first run mag catch wouldn't hold the 30 rnd mags. Can I expect them to drop out often or do they generally stay in during firing?

    Not shooting it yet, just wondering what to expect.

    I believe those are aftermarket mags, so the quality could be questionable. - Bob
