For $10 I doubt they were that good in the first place. They should be reasonably tight, but not so much that they strangle the magazines. I can slip a magazine out pretty quickly.

I ordered one too, I'll check how mine fit when I get them (maybe today?)
EDIT: Just tested mine. It's tight, but I can easily pull the mags out. I find my CYMA mag is less tight then my Tokyo Marui ones. I think for 12 bucks its a good deal, but I have nothing to compare it to.

They are a good deal for $12, a lot better than dirtying some originals/high quality repros. I am going to try stretching tricks (steaming them with mags in, etc) and will let you know how that goes. They seem durable which is good. And since i only have TM and custom mags, i don't know if cymas would be better, as right now, the mags are a bit too difficult to pull out.

They should be tight enough to keep them from flying out, but loose enough so you dont have to fight to get them in or out.
Put the magazines (or blocks of wood cut to the same size), soak it in water breifly, then let it air dry (still with magazines/blocks in). They should be the right size after that.

For pulling them out is easy, just putting them in is hard. To get them in, I found it works better if you twist them a little bit. Let me know how the stretching goes.

They have been soaked in boiling water, and are drying, i will report when i am done letting them dry
