Only thing I broke on an AR, was the extractor pin on an Olympic Arms I got used.
Been thru at least 5 ARs over the years(Colt,and home built), that has been the only problem I have ever had outside of some mags not fitting in the well.
As far as mags, I just examine and buy whats cheap and fits.
Couldn't care less about brand.
I have had cheap used $5 mags outlast top of the line ones that cost $20+
Just PMCS your rifle and stuff and you will not have a failure.
