what mags?  not sure OGK's take dye very well but Tuffs should be fine.

Although yellow ones are hard to come by now (if they are 80's ones) so would be better to sell em and buy some black ones as there's loads  :daumenhoch:

I'm not sure on OGK's, you need to ask Bendycateleven as he's done quite a few sets of mags in the past and might know more on them  :daumenhoch:
