    They come in Magpul mags, about $8 each if you shop. Magazines are EXPENDABLE items, to have 30 year old ones is ridiculous on a whole new scale? I’d be more worried about bad feed lips.

    I know what he was talking about, I was just pointing out the absurdity of keeping/rebuilding 30 year old magazines when there are much better options available.

    So you were worried about bad feed lips on metal magazines?

    I prefer to answer the OP’s question first then offer additional advice...

    I think that is a good idea. May be false economy, especially when I just paid $8/ea. for a dozen EPMs last gun show,but I bought one of those oversized freezer bags pull of Magpul followers at a gun show in Indianapolis years ago.

    It's ridiculous until another mag ban comes around and they suddenly become worth 50.00+each.

    Then you’ve already cut into your profit margin by a couple dollars each by replacing the parts? That’s NOT how you become a billionaire magazine baron. Saving magazines from the last ban that you paid $50 for and selling them in the next ban for $50 after replacing the followers is still a net loss?

    His mags may be 30 years old, most likely not used often.
    Thanks for the links Gentlemen, I will buy some. I have G.I. mags with the green followers that replaced the black ones.
