I just got the Bakelite mag I ordered last week (AIM Surplus). It's nice... Very nice. No signs of handling, looks like it just came fresh from the factory. The one I got was a Tula (AIM does not seperate Tulas from Izhevsk mags or guarantee which you will receive). Came with the capacity limiter (which I promptly removed), steel locking lugs front and back, and steel impregnated feed lips. Seems like a very sturdy mag and looks very nice. I was also impressed enough with the condition of the mag to order another. Maybe I'll wind up with one of each.
