    Yep, you got it!

    As far as complete uppers go, expect that any place you order from will likely have at least an 8 week wait or longer given the current spike in demand. Most places with uppers on the shelf are probably charging a premium due to the law of supply and demand.

    The same holds for magazines, although not quite as much of a wait for most of the metal mags.

    which mags are better and more reliable? Metal or Poly? I think it was midway selling mags for $12.96!!! They were on backorder though...

    I'll let some more experienced guys answer on the mags, since I haven't had any real experience with them.

    I have heard good things about the Magpul Polymer mags, the metal C-products mags, as well as good old GI mags. From what I read, a lot of it has to do with the follower and spring used.

    I like Okay brand mags myself. The Magpul P-mags are great too.

    I have upgraded most of my mags with the Magpul follower also. Worth a look.
