I just visited LGS and they had plenty of pmags - for $59 each.

I was 3 when the first AWB went through. Since it ended in 2004 I've been buying lots of mags. Just because we are young doesn't mean we can't study/learn from history. I'm not trying to be a tool but I think anyone who lived through the 2008 rush has an idea of what its like to not be able to get anything. When I buy a new gun I start buying parts/mags because you never know when you won't be able to get them ever again. The second thing I learned was to always buy parts that are high quality. KCI glock mags might be avaliable abd work for a while but factory glock mags are way better. Don't every buy knockoffs of the real deal. |

"Don't fight it, son. Confess quickly. If you hold out too long, you could jeopardize your credit rating."

All I can say is -WOW. I thought I had enough mags, but I know there is never enough. Nice collections.
|
|
|
Hopefully I will have a pic for you guys in week purchased around 40 mags today . 30 P mags , 10 Okay Ind . , and 4 Tapco AK Mags

No bullshit. :) (2) 20 round GI mags and (6) 30 round polymer mags arent in the picture because they are actually loaded and with colt at my other house. These are what I have here. Oh and that's a Saiga12ga 12-round clip in the back. :P

I have plenty of mags for my handguns, but only 12, 30 round magpul PMAGs. For 2 ARs. I'm such an idiot!!!! Now it's too late. The only place I've been about to find any is at Cheaper Than Dirt...for $99!?!?!?!?!?!?! Oh well, at least I have a decent ammo stash. Not nearly as much as some, but a good start. I have 8000 rounds for my ARs (4000 rounds of XM193 and 4000 rounds of M855). Plus most of my handguns are .45s and I have around 3500 rounds of .45, 6000 rounds of .22LR, plus a couple thousand rounds for each of my other calibers.

Well, as I got close to 20, I realized that I maybe didn't necessarily want to advertise the number of magazines I own, so after 20 I started with 1A. I will continue to do so, to keep others guessing, rather than be at the range with a mag with 143 on it and have people saying, "Holy crap do you really have 143 magazines?" |
