| Whose got new 15 rnd 92 mags (factory) that don't cost between $35 and $40 each? My local store is selling them for $38 each and everywhere I look online they are only slightly cheaper with the exception of CDNN but they have been out of stock for a long time. Thanks for the help. |
+1 - When I got my first 92 (92FSB, IIRC) in the early '80s, extra 15-round factory mags were $30-40. Twenty years & 1 AWB later, you can order one directly from Beretta for $43 (or a 20-rounder for $35) or look around and find them for less than that from certain dealers. Not a lot to complain about IMHO.

I did a little research on the MDS (Meccanica del Sarca) and decided to go with those. I found them locally for $22.00 each. They look exactly like Beretta factory except they don't say "Beretta" on them. Here's a link to an overview of MDS by Beretta. www.berettausa.com/proshop/mds/mec_sarca_intro.htm |
Except they have the crappy base pads and shiny finish which I don't care for. Besides MDS is the company that actually makes Beretta's factory magazines. |
Beretta factory and mil mags are dirt cheap again, Local store had a bunch of used military Beretta USA, Italian and check-mates for $ 19 ea. They had 3 of the 2003 contract Check-mates new in wrap for $ 16 ea. Tons of the good asian contract mags around cheap too
|
I wouldn't trust my life to Check-mates or Asian contract mags. I have a couple of the Asian contract mags for plinking but when compared to the factory mags made by Beretta they are shit. For roughly the same money I went with the MDS mags. |
