SergeantMajorGray Posted January 16, 2013 Share #7 Posted January 16, 2013 I knew I should have bought more months ago when they were $18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bugme Posted January 16, 2013 Author Share #8 Posted January 16, 2013 I had the opportunity to buy 100 used M-16/M-14 mags about three months ago for $4.00 each and I passed on them since you could get them retail for about $8.00. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldfireguy Posted January 17, 2013 Share #9 Posted January 17, 2013 Gee I have about 50 of those sitting here. Maybe it's time to sell. Cheaper than Dirt is known for outrageous prices during times like these. I wouldn't buy from them if they were the only company around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack's Son Posted January 17, 2013 Share #11 Posted January 17, 2013 Now, lets take a look at their ammo!!!! http://www.cheaperthandirt.com/categorylisting.aspx?catid=75 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldfireguy Posted January 17, 2013 Share #12 Posted January 17, 2013 I'll give you $4.00 each. You would have to come up a bit. I was watching GI's selling these outside JBLM to the surplus stores and getting $2 a piece for them. Most of the surplus stores were selling the used ones for $5 and new for $12. They weren't all Colts but today the price is $20 - $50 per mag depending on who you get them from. I'm hanging on to what I have. I doubt at that price they are selling many.

Bugme Posted January 17, 2013 Author Share #13 Posted January 17, 2013 ...I doubt at that price they are selling many. I highly doubt that they have folks knocking down the doors for these things myself. I think it's more of a strategy to stop a rush of orders. Whatever the case, the days of the "cheap" mag are almost certainly gone, at least until the knee jerking stops. If I were you, I'd hold onto them too.

shtur Posted January 17, 2013 Share #14 Posted January 17, 2013 On several shooting forums, they are being posted for ~ $25.00 each and not being bought. Over several million were made for the military, so they are not scares. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
316th FS 324th FG Posted January 18, 2013 Share #15 Posted January 18, 2013 At SHOTShow this week, no mags under $25 and Pmags were $65 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldfireguy Posted January 18, 2013 Share #16 Posted January 18, 2013 Supply and demand I guess. When the supply catches up to the demand, and it will, some people are going to get stuck with some really expensive mags. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
