Edited ... OP is a gouger. He wants $50.00 each for the same mags you can get at Midway, Palmetto State Armory or Brownells for less than $20.00.

Please tell me this kind of crap has not started-up again - like it was during the AWB. There is not even a shortage yet and already the profiteers are out trying to take advantage of people. I hope they are the first ones to go.

I have more than I need and got these before the craze happened. As far as the GI Mags, I've had them a little while and just phased them out as I bought Pmags. They're all solid. Back when they were easy to come by if I had a GI mag that was giving me issues it got smashed with a hammer. These are all hammer free! The Pmags are new in package. GI mags have green anti tilt follower.

If you can find them at any of your mentioned sites be my guest. If you haven't looked lately 50 is a fair price at the current state of everybody running and grabbing anything remotely related to an AR off the shelf.

It has begun.

From an on-scene reporter today: "Fort Worth gun show was insanity. Price gouging was the theme of the day. Triple or worse on price and so crowded that you couldn't move in there. Police working traffic around the facility." It was so bad this actually made the news this morning. People interviewed said the same thing is going on at local gun stores.

Gordon Gekko was probably right "Greed, for lack of a better word, is good"

So KSP227... Did you join this forum exclusively for the purpose of price gouging its members or are you planning to actually contribute?
FWIW, I stopped by my favorite LGS yesterday and his shelves had plenty of PMags and he has a few cases "out back" as well. While he's limiting sales to 3/person, he's still charging $12 for the plain ones and $15 for the windowed version.

This doesn't mean you must follow suit !
Nothing fair about gouging.....even if others are doing it.

It appears this guy just dropped in to hustle mags.

No simple "high there" post or introduction.

Personally i would not trust him. Send a postal order and get nothing in return.

Let him sell on a board he frequents if any.

Keep away. Too many scammers out there.

Sorry guy if you don't like what i am saying, step back and look at it from our point of view.

Other than your gouging prices, who knows if you will deliver?

New to forum, yes I am. Is 50 a piece high for pmags. Yes it is. Is it about half of what some lunitics are getting payed on eBay. Absolutely. Is this current economy crap on me and my family. You bet your ass. If somebody wants to pay 50$ for a high capacity magazine that may or may not become banned then great. They can have what I've decided I do not need. I've got 8 that I carry everyday in my line of work. As far as my credibility, it's as solid as they come. I have no need to prove my trustfulness on some online forum. The magazines have already been sold. 61 dollars a piece. Would I pay that, absolutely not. But there are some out there that feel they need them that much. That money went straight to diapers and food. Sorry if I've offended anyone here or looked like some sort of scam artist. I am not. I'll remove the sale posting and that will be that. If I can find a way for my family to get by a little easier at the end of the month, I'll do it every time. Do not patronize me for that. Y'all have a good one.

Dude, I am sorry....I didn't know your wallet was feeling
any economical pains......forgive me ?

Most of us on here are very, very wealthy.
If you had only stated your personal financial woe,
we would have gladly accepted your approach to
gouge members......
Not only accepted, but would have more than likely
given you double the amount asked......

We, the rich and fortunate, have a way of missing others needs.....
for that, I apologize.
Sometimes, screwing others is OK......

Well im just a working man with two girls plus a grandson here with us,
We here on the prepper forum are trying to help each other out!!
Would i pay you 61.00 $ apeice nope. If you come here and post fifty bucks each
Then you are no help to us.
Is the shit does hit the fan no matter what i would do that.
If money is the only issue e-bay is the way to go, here i can only hope, pray. That these people here would each other out,
I havent been here long but if the staff allows people like you here i will vacate.
This is whats wrong with us now. Greed!!! Reverse the situation, if you were new and just got your first AR
And this came down on you, just two mags, you needing more,
Now choose feeding your family, of facing someone sellong mags way above price.
When one could help someone out

Most times I'm so poor I can't even pay attention. Even so, I would not take advantage of others. But that's just me.

That being said, you can be either part of the problem or part of the solution. You made your choice.

I guess your opinion of the people here is that they are substandard to your superior position in life.

I don't think anyone here is aspiring to be on d day preppers.

I guess, judging from your attitude, that you thought you could use you advanced intellectual position to play upon the irrational fears of us unterhumans.

Were you hoping we would beat a pathway to your benevolent deal?

If you even partially thought like us, you would never have considered selling any mags.

You obviously never were in combat, if you had been, you would not be posting those mags in a time like this.

If you are a LEO as hinted, they are probably department property.

Take your junk to ebay, at least there ebay will cover scam lost.

DON'T LET THE EXIT KEY HIT YOU IN THE ASS ON THE WAY OUT.:grin:
