308 12 rd mag question.

When these were being sold back in the day by cheaper than dirt, how much were they getting for them? I know they offered them individually and also in a pair with mag clamp. I bought some but forget how much I paid(getting old....)
No, I don't have any to sell, just curious.

LIttle over a year ago, these things were selling for just under $20 each. If you purchased two, you received a free clasp to hold them together. CTD was not the only vender which had them.
For the prices wanted for them now I would simply pay $100 and get 25 rounders.
The unlike the .223 mags, the .308 sometimes BUT not ALWAYS work in valmets. I know people use Galil mags in Valmets, but, even though they fit, they feed low. Hence, the reason valmet magazines cost so much.

Side note, I wonder if valmet mags would feed at the correct angle for the Golani which was feeding low? Possibly, a simple, if very cost inefficient solution.

The Mags For Galil .308 Will Work In A Valmet As Long As It Is A Milled Receiver Not a Stamped. All You Have to Do Is File A Little On The Side And Front LIp. I Have Eight 10 Rounders And Fifteen 25 Rounders For My valmet 78. and I Also Ues Them In mY .308 Galil. the Mags Are Worth About Forty Bucks For Ten And 120 For Twenty Five Rounders. In My Valmet 76 223 I Use East German Mags . Nevr Use A Galil .223 Mag In A Velmet.To Low Feed Angle.
