I recently purchased an Echo 1 P90 and I'm trying to get mags for it. I've looked around a little, and from what I've gathered so far, pretty much all high caps and most mid caps are touchy at best, and absolute crap at worst. I've come across a lot of people saying the MAG midcaps are the way to go, but it mostly sounds like people who have never actually used the P90 midcaps, and just recommend MAG because they've had luck with some of their other products. So I was hoping that someone here who has experience with these, could definitively tell me whether or not they work, and any issues you've had, before I go and buy any.

I don't have any experience with these specific mags, but I have MAG midcaps for my SIG and they feed flawlessly. I would expect their P90 mags would be similar, and wouldn't hesitate to buy them.

I believe Snafu purchased a set of MAG P90 mids and I'm pretty sure a few of the box set he picked up didn't feed, because the spring in the mags wouldn't break in.

Gunny is right I did buy a box set when I had my Mauri P90. Two of the four that came in the box fed perfect after a few drops of silicone. The other two weren't feeding when I sold my p90 as a package deal. I'm pretty confident that with a bit of work loading and unloading you could possibly get them to work. However I did load them and let them sit a day with silicone and bb's. Still didn't feed to well after that!
I would say go for it and buy some just make sure you go through a reputable dealer. ASGI or airsoft atlanta both have been good to me. Then if a few don't feed you can maybe exchange them...
Last but not least I can say one thing for sure. A 170rd mag in a p90 seems huge. Even two of them working is like carrying 5 of the very trusty TM low caps.
Long post = Too much adderal...

Dang it, leaving them loaded for a day or two was exactly what I was going to try if one of them didn't work Well thanks for the info. You're right, even two mags plus the two low caps I have already will go a long ways. It's more from a cost perspective; when I'm spending $20 or more on one mag, it had better actually work. I'm probably going to go with them anyways, from what I've gathered there aren't any better options out there. I'm not a fan of high caps even when they work and carrying all low caps would take a LOT of pouches.

A few months ago I picked up a couple, fed just fine in my Echo 1 E90. WAY better than a hi-cap too.

I bought a few of these back in March and I have used these and the lowcap that came with mine. I tried the strategy of leaving mine loaded for a few days and they worked fine for a few months but now they have this odd double feeding problem where every other shot will go at only 50% power. I do not have that problem with my lowcap. So, I don't know if what I did before was just temporary or what but the problem isn't really huge and I could probably remedy it by doing this again.
