P-Mag Rant

[sTraTz]

I really appreciate the stores that are keeping their prices on Pmags reasonable.
These are also the stores I will be shopping at in the future.

How about $250 Beowulf mags?

 

[Max Owner]

Place an order with Questar. Pre orders are filled first.

I got lucky and ordered 10. 2 1/2 weeks later I had an e-mail shipping notification. $19.99 for the 2nd generation black ones. When I get caught up, I will do the same again.

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 won't argue that pmags are inferior at all - but worth $50 vs $19 (If you needed mags and can't wait for prices to come down)? I have bought pmags at low $20 prices. In then states for low teens before things went crazy it would be an easy choice.

Anyway I'm not arguing about the quality, just the inflated asking price.

I fully agree, the prices are stupid and the level of gouging is sickening.

$50 per pmag has been the going rate on EE for months now, nothing new

some sold for more in the early stages

not worth it to me, but clearly someone is buying

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.

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!

Funny enough - just pulled out a metal mag and a pmag and the metal one has a bent feed lip >.<

Damnit haha... Time to do a mag audit.

Only idiots would pay that price for them now. When dealers have them for $20-30 each. Oh well.

 

[Youngfreshtoodeath]

This required logic to type and I agree. I'd pay a little more for Beowulf mags but not $200 more per mag. Lar mags are the best bang for your buck in Canada IMO.

Yeah, I laught at buddy when he told me 250 for one Beowulf. I ordered 3 from armtac and will gladly wait 6,7,8,9 months to save 600 bucks. Same reason I'm not dropping 2200,2400,2600 for a keltec KSG, il wait a couple years and save up to 1600 bucks.

TSE had a load the other day $26 inc tax (black non window).

For what it's worth I'm not a fan of the EE profiteering but to each his own.... Some of the EE stuff I laugh and move on!

 

[PorkNBeans]

Start of a self fulfilling prophecy...

$19.99 PMAG at dealer becomes $50 PMAG on EE--->
$25.99 PMAG at dealer becomes $60 PMAG on EE--->
$35.99 PMAG at dealer becomes $75 PMAG on EE--->
$50.99 PMAG at dealer becomes $120 PMAG on EE....

 

[copeland]

I agree with the op. it's not about free markets, it's a buy and sell section.
Talk about poor fellowship.

I think if this keeps up the retailers may view things in a different light.

 

[Greenhorse six]

I'll rent you some of my pmags for a lot less.......wait.. What,you said rent, right?

 

[A.T.R.]

I got shipped yesterday 6 pmags gen 2 for $150 shipped from a non site sponsor.

Deals are out there.

If true then why cant P mag meet Mil-Spec

I have never seen a major issue with the CF metal mags but every guy in my unit who bought PMags have cracked feed lips. Now the Lancer is a nice mag and they atleast they had the sense to use steel lips.
