Mag shortage is beginning...?

[Itchytriggerfinger]

Just a heads up. RK in Frankfort has a wall of pmags available. Not the best price ($14.99) but there's plenty. They also have hexmags for $13.99 and MFT for $9.99. Pistol mags are slim pickings.

Unfortunately, only six of them are 30 round. Two are 10 round and two are 20 round. Still, not a bad “find”.

Lost cause trying to find AR7 mags anywhere. Nearly everywhere is OOS, including Henry, WHO MAKES THEM, and the few places that have any want like $50 each.
I'll wait. Guess I should have bought more when they were less than $20.

Soon we will only be allowed to own 10rd mags so might wanna grab those up.

I feel bad for the new guys.

Those of us who have been around a few years know better.

I know $ is tighter for some than others but if it is a priority, a guy could have made it happen over the good years.

Also something to be said about recognizing when you have "enough".

I like the gunsmith at Highsmith and they occassionally have good used gun deals.

It isnt the place for new guns, mags, or ammo.

Rural king had all kind of AK 30rd mags for sale.

 

[tweekie1953]

Just ordered 7 - PMAG 30 AR/M4 GEN M2 MOE- from Midway USA. Limit of 10.

 

[bsmithg19]

Just ordered 20 more M2 pmags for $239 shipped. Higher than last year, but just to be safe

Only mags I'm looking at now are for a gun I would likely use in the future. I currently don't have an AR10 type, but at some point will again most likely so I picked up some 308 Pmags. Otherwise, this isn't my first rodeo.

Last go around single 30rd AR mags got over $100 a piece on auction. We'll see what happens with this round of panic buying.

At $100 a pop I'd sell at least 50 lol.

The GI aluminum type went for around $100, the Pmags were $150 ish. I was blown away at those prices.

Went internet hunting 10 round mags for various platforms last night.
The folks in the states that mandate 10 round magazines have been stocking up big time. I found em, but it wasn't easy or cheap.

Yup.

Natchez also has PMAGS for $10.99.

Been carrying 9mm Shields for the last several years. Don't even own any 10+ mag guns. Couple of days ago I ordered an M&P FDE 17 rd 9mm. been looking at these for years. I figured I shouldn't take any more chances and ordered one of off Gunbroker. Also ordered 4 17rd factory mags for this from TombStone Tactical. I don't know what the prices on these were BEFORE all this but I paid $37.99 each.

Natchez has M&P 9 mags for $29.99. They’ll have the black base pads though.

well that figures....wasted 32 bucks!

I checked 3 or 4 places before I went with Tombstone and they all wanted 39-42 each

Maybe this is why 3D stock is up LOL

The S&W mags with tan baseplate are always more $. All things considered you didn't do bad in todays times. You just bought a very good reliable pistol with plenty of mags. I don't see any fault in that.
