Anyone seen these before? I was away on a business trip and saw them at a store. i had to buy it just to see how it works, unfortunately they dont fit in my Nomad stock so I cant actually test it. Looks cool and works pretty much the way it was advertised. But in terms of how it shoots, I have no idea.

I think its a cool idea, maybe not executed perfectly with the stripper clips as the rounds are not held in at all, so if you were to put the spare stripper clip in your pocket all the rounds would fall out. I DO like the 20 round storage on the side of the clip. Thats a really cool idea. Something that should be included on more mags IMO.

Just thought id share something I found that id never seen before. It would fit a standard 10/22 perfectly and would be great for a takedown model for storing more rounds with the gun in its case.
 
Aside from looking like it's a dirt collector, it's a 25rd mag, stainless steel lips, and can be taken apart to be clean. So if it's reliable and priced right, it could sell well here seeing how we can't get the ruger factory magazines. The stripper clip is neat, should save some thumbs.
 
^^ after messing around with it for a bit I found loading to be the only time the stripper clip was helpful. I realize that sounds silly as loading is exactly what a stripper clip is for, why I mean Is that it's easier to load the stripper clip THEN load the clip than it is to load a normal 25 round mag on its own. But quick changing the strippers is not really feasible due to how loosely the rounds are held in the stripper. You have to angle it just right and wiggle it all around and most of the time a few rounds end up falling out. Still, I agree that in the world of 10/22 mags this one is as good as any other out there.
 
Brownells has these listed now, I'd buy some but I probably wouldn't get a chance to try them out till the spring time.
 
I got mine in the US... at a small gun shop. Cant remember the name. I think it cost about $40... which is darn close to a BC Steel lips but with more features. I dont even own a 10/22 anymore but I think im going to hold on to it. I think another 10/22 is in my future.
 
They ship rimfire magazines, regardless of capacity. If the company is registered for export.
I'd contact fabsports, as they seem to like bringing in 10/22 stuff like this. There is another sponsor I've noted for being good at this, but I can't recall their name right now.
 
Kind of neat. I'd be happy with this mag without the so called stripper clip feature but with Thumb Assist. It would be great to just pull down on a thumb assist and drop rounds in.
 
Wolverine Supplies ordered some last week. I liked the concept so thought it was worth trying some. Do not have an ETA yet.

Is there a Wolverine waiting list for these?
Tag me for two when the time comes.
If no ETA yet, expecting post April deadline on their website.
