Since my last post (not even sure when that was, but it was a while ago), I've really scored some good bargains on mags.
last summer I picked up 40 used GI mags for about $5 a pop, a bunch of HK super mags for about $15 a pop, and recently 20 NIW Center's for $6 a pop. And I was busy buying mags after Sandy Hook, and never paid the overly inflated prices. My collection, as of my last inventory, as it stands now is: 20Rnd 5.56 AR mags: 129 30Rnd 5.56 AR mags: 66 BetaC 5.56 AR Mags: 3 32rnd 9mm AR Mags: 17 BetaC 9mm AR MAg: 1 I'm pretty sure that's correct, but I might be shorting my 20's... Need to go through them again to be sure, apparently... |

True. I'm just using the old military standard that loading 30 compresses the spring too much. Probably totally false, but just erring on the side of caution. Hah, not sure what military that is. Just saying, we loaded 30 in the Corps. Maybe it's an AF thing or something...."guys" can't smack a mag home ;) As for the topic, I only have like a hundred mags, nothing compared to most guys here!

32 USGI, various makes
About 24 Thermold 20s with mag couplers 
About a dozen Tapcos 
HK91 is good. About 42 
.50 cal can for Glock 9mm mags 
.50 cal can for Beretta 92 mags 
Just getting started on the Magpuls now that the panic is over 
Should have 20 more USGI in next week and that will round those out. Just picked up 8 more surplus Beretta 92 mags from Double Tap. Got ammo for them, just to lazy to sit down and load 'em.
