Where to find GSG 1911 magazines?

Will see what CBSA does, for the last one it's only been seized for a few days.
The first one was mailed June 23 with no tracking info and has disappeared.
I have a suspicion that CBSA management wants currently legal items like pistol magazines to be held until late fall to see if their liberal masters institute a capacity change.
I have no respect for CBSA managements anti-firearms agenda, they come across as just more liberal bureaucrat bootlickers.

canadian vendors will trickle more in I figure now, I should have just waited longer working around dodging the magazine hogs.
I was an idiot and ended up spending $175 just to end up with one magazine, which is all I wanted.
Should have just bought a different model GSG 1911 from Prophet River :redface:

Hey now!? WTF? I actually felt bad and was considering offering you 1 of the mags I bought at cost, but then I saw you got your poop in a group and sorted it out, but labeling those early birds who get the worm thusly makes me reconsider my previous positions.
 
I would not assume that CBSA seized your magazine.
This year has been quite different from previous years in terms of ordered items getting customs clearance.
Longest I had to endure was roughly 4 months, and shortest was 1/2 day clearance.
(It was for firearm parts/accessories, not importing a complete gun)

Mississauga being the longest wait, and Montreal being the shortest wait.
Mississauga never applied duty, and Richmond applied duty all the time (Except 1 time)

I am positive that your magazine will be released and out for delivery soon.

Cheers

LOL, no worries, wasn't directed specifically at you anyway, many folks were scooping them up en masse for the last couple months, those GSG 1911 are an awesome firearm for the price. No one should be concerned that I'm asleep at the switch with my shorts riding up my crack.

Not sure about the delay with CBSA but these are pistol mags whose capacity is currently not being changed.

Whos to say what their intentions are with the proposed OIC regulatory change to magazine capacities, no one has actually seen any written document about it.
Currently only long gun magazines are mentioned within any media talk about it, but it wouldn't surprise me at all to see in a final document that it encompasses all magazines in one way or another.

the one I bought from guns-r-us disappeared with no refund, no doubt seized CBSA.
the one I bought from riflemags.co.uk was instantly seized by CBSA for review too and will probably disappear with no refund as well.

Just an update about the mags from the UK.
the guns-r-us mag disappeared, I have contested the purchase through the bank, doubt I'll have the $ returned.
It was probably seized by CBSA for having its contents improperly labeled or something?
(edited to add Aug 19: $ was refunded, unknown if it was refunded on their part or because I contested the purchase through TD bank)

The one from riflemags was finally released by CBSA last friday, should show up any day. (received this magazine)
