Now I've seen it all. $500.00 for 10 P-Mags in the EE, you gotta be frikkin kiddin me. I can understand a guy or gal trying to make a couple of bucks on some things but that just being bent over the table ! Magpul will ship in time, it's not like they have left planet earth.
Regards
 
If people want to pay that, I see no issue.

However - sellers at that price should realize very quickly that they are insane. It's like other super overpriced stuff in the EE... it will sit for a loooong time. Maybe I should sell my Cooey 75 for $500....
 
The problem I have is the cycle goes like this .. Mass shooting-everywhere out of pmags-75 dollar pmags-100 dollar pmags - dealer gets a shipment in- 50 dollar pmags - 75 dollar pmags then the real kicker MANY dealers get stock then a massive influx of 50 dollar pmags ... Open market blah blah blah but I won't deal with you from now on

I find it hilarious that people would pay that big of premium over d&h mags that sask gun works has/had (not sure if they sold out yet).

Second post in a row about gun works - no I'm not shilling.

P-mags for thoughs who love cracked lips ;) every colored P-mag I ever inspected were cracked after only a year of hard use. Funny that the so called crappy GI mags last well over 5yrs of hard use.

Yup I hate P-mags!

I have had both, and I would 100% pay the premium for the PMAG, however I have enough at the moment, so I will just wait for prices to drop before I get more.

It all depends on the level of durability and endurance you want from a magazine... not what you need, what you want.

In response to the above... I have never had any experience with anything other then the black pmags, seems like perhaps the dye they used did not agree with the polymer.

I have nothing but the highest praise for the standard Pmags.

I hear Questar gets regular shipments of pmags in, and if you check other dealer forums other are still bringing them in usually at $20-$30 max. Pay more if you want lol
 
Its funny because used pmags on the EE are now double what stores are currently selling them new for as of this week. Multiple forum dealers. They are selling fast but they are getting in stock again.

How and why they are selling for anything more on the EE is beyond me.
 
Paying premium prices is one thing, I've done that more than once if I really wanted something, but paying thru the A$$ is another.

Pmags are light years ahead of USGI mags, this is an undisputed fact.

Magazines are disposable regardless of who makes them or what they're made of. A USGI can't take a tenth of the abuse a Pmag can, and that's not taking reliability or lack thereof into account.

I am in full favor of the fundemental principals of capitalism, but I try to always give a fair price to fellow sports shooters and hunters whenever I can...It seems that not all gun enthusiasts have the same level of solidarity.

If your gonna burn someone, burn a liberal.

here...I'll start with the good gun Karma...I just got a box of PMAGS today...I will happily set you up with a few at cost (I really had no intention of selling them) if you can't find any from our sponsors...

but I'm pretty sure there were still some at Reliable Gun today.
