I’ve Some Goodies On the Way To Me!

I ordered a new holster to accommodate the new weapon-mounted light, as well as several more mags for the Kuna.

It’s another QVO More Discreet IWB holster, but without a fabric print. I’ll be using this as an AIWB holster.

This holster is black kydex with the same additional options as my first one – metal wing, and two belt clips, with the holster keying off of an Olight PL.

I’ll have to add velcro so that I can attach a wedge to it. This may be the time to use my Masterminds Tactics pillow wedge. Or, I can order more of their foam wedges (which I’m currently using). Another choice would be to just pull that foam wedge from my current holster so that I can use it on the new holster.

So this Saturday, I’ll add the new light to the Attila and begin using the new holster, after adding a wedge to the holster.

Also on the way are three ProMag magazines for my Kuna. ProMags for Kunas have a good reputation (from what I’ve heard/seen). These were cheaper than buying three more Kuna magazines. They were $16 each.

I plan to visit the range this Friday (tomorrow) and Saturday, I’ll probably shoot the Kuna tomorrow, to test the new mags. As always, I shoot my CC gun when I visit the range, even if it’s only a mag or two.

UPDATE (7/26/2026): The holster and extra magazines arrived on Friday. For the holster, I installed velcro so that I could continue to use my foam wedge that I was using with the previous QVO holster. This new holster appears to have better fitment. I’m unsure why, because it’s the same holster, although it’s dependent upon an entirely different weapon light. As well, this meant I had to finally install the Osight PL, which I did. The whole setup looks badass. I’m now wondering if I should’ve added fabric print to it. Regarding the ProMag mags – I was able to test one and it shot all 30 rounds without issue. It inserts, shoots, and extracts from the gun without issue. I did compare one with my OEM Kuna mags and the ProMags do not have metal feed lips. The mag tube feels more robust, though, but I’ll have to watch the feed lips. I also think I may order a mag loader for the Kuna, because the mags are somewhat tight and loading 30 round mags without a loader SUCKS!

Do You Need AK mags?

I bought my AK mags from the following places.  I mention this because I see folks with new AKs always asking where to buy mags.

Atlantic Firearms

Apex Gun Parts

Gun Mag Warehouse

Each of those sites have reasonably priced magazines.  They also offer a variety of types (polymer, steel, new, or surplus) from different countries.

Check those sites often, as much of their stock tends to be sold out due to the pandemic.

Keep in mind that cheap doesn’t always mean good.  KCI mags tend to have reliability issues and are flimsy in build quality.  Croatian mags tend to be hit or miss when it comes to latching in place (see here for my experience with the Croatian mags).  The reason I wanted Croatian mags was for their bolt-hold-open (BHO) capability.  Croatian mags are also not surplus…they are new.

Good mags that are usually cheap are Bulgarian surplus mags.  I have not reviewed the Bulgarian mags I have but they just work and do not feel flimsy.

I also have 6 x Tapco polymer mags.  Folks LOVE to hate on those.  I didn’t buy them.  They came with the first AK I bought (the AMD-63).  They work, which is something the Croatian mags wouldn’t initially do.  They will also fit in every AK I have, which is, again, something the Croatian mags wouldn’t do.  They’re perfectly fine for range use and have yet to fail on me.

UPDATE (1/10/21):  PSA has a sale on Croatian mags right now, marked down from $19.99 to $12.99.  Also, if you order 10+, shipping is free (per the product page).  As well, Mrgunsngear stated that they’ve changed the mag tab (probably narrowed it slightly) so that there’s less of an issue with latching.
