.50 Beowulf Mags?

It doesn't, it goes for like $40-50. It's being "scalped" for $250.
LOL. I'm not complaining... And I'm not buying them out of principal. I am all for making a buck and if I had extras I'd be selling them for as much as I could get too. I just don't care enough. I am happy loading my mags 5 rounds at a time. It makes the range time last longer and I don't waist as much ammo. When I load up my .22 with 25 rounds its not like I'm aiming really when I am rapid firing.
If I had a need for them like people said they use them for 3 gun, then I would be all over the $250 price. But for me it's not worth it yet and I can wait it out.
FYI: I called Alexander Arms the other day and got a call back this morning. I was going to try and order some from them. They told me the web sales are 3-4 months back ordered. So it looks like I'll have a pile of them at my residence in the USA by about sept..

what are the chances we get some in our hands though,,
Im guessing pretty good.
What mag issue ? 458 Socom feeds fine through unmodified 5.56 mag. Take a 20rd body and install a single shot follower and reassembly.
A 20 rd mag body will take 7 socom rounds. With single shot follower it will take 5 socom rounds. You don't have to bother pinning mag ! I would put a rivet in floorplate however
Cradles a socom round perfectly
If the gendarme try to put a 5.56 round it just sits on follower. Everyone is happy
I use this mag also when shooting 75Gr Amax 5.56 ( COL too long for magazine )

Strange. I just tested out my trio of Beowulf mags last night at the range, I think a few people were jealous I wasn't reloading, lol. They worked perfectly in my ATRS AR-15.
Manufacturer should be churning these out by the tens of thousands if they had any love of buisness, but I suppose that our small but willing market that is craving for this product is not enough to warrant an increase in their pitifully slow production.
Every single owner of a firearm that shoots AR style mags would buy at least one, if not 10 of these if they were priced under $50 and readily available.
