Mags for SAF guns... any chance of getting metal mags in?

How can TI help if there are no more mags left? Do they have a stash of mags held for warranty concerns? If so, what happens when those run out? Like others here, the only thing that prevented me from buying a mini saf was mag availability and support in the future.
 
My mags have never been dropped or abused in any way, but they have started to flake off little bits of plastic. I've never used them outside in sub-zero temperature, never left them out in the sun, or any other negligent things that are hard on plastic. The plastic breaks down naturally and becomes really brittle.

For me it is the base plates that got it the worst. The bits that flake off are at the little "lip" that slides over the little rail that keeps the base plate in place. This piece is slightly under spring tension and that is the only reason I can think of for it to cause the base to crack at that location and flake off while it just sits there. The mags sat untouched on a shelf in a closet since October of last year and flaked off several more little plastic bits.

I don't use one of the two mags anymore because so much plastic has flaked off that the base is no longer securely held in place anymore. At first it was just cosmetic but now one of the mags is inoperable because of this. The other mag is flaking a bit on the base but it isn't nearly as bad (yet).

Long story short, metal mags sound like a fantastic idea.
 
Later this year...ok sure. I have sold mine and thrown away 3 mags that were unserviceable. Best of luck to all involved , sincerely, this was a fun gun.
