I know this may be the wrong forum, but I'm relatively sure this one sees the most traffic. So here we go.
I may have a line on a bulk purchase of AR-15 PMAGS, the ones with the little viewing window. If I can get enough interest, I'm going to buy them and then sell them at $18.00 apiece....passing the savings onto ya'll. Locals only, I'd like for these to be picked up if they're purchased by members. I can deliver within a short distance.
Post up, and let's see what kind of interest I can get going.
P.S., I believe these mags generally sell for around $30.00 apiece....

$18 isn't a bad price, but there's no way they are still going for $30 (and
actually being sold at that price), although 9 or 10 months ago that might have been true. Here's some current price examples:
http://www.midwayusa.com/viewproduct/?p ... ber=816795 - $17.95
http://www.cheaperthandirt.com/MAG084-36.html - $16.97
http://www.ustacticalsupply.com/magleve ... azine.aspx - $17.95
http://www.anchorarmament.com/magpul-30 ... el-pm.html - $17.95
I think the main advantage you're going to have at that price is in selling FTF without sales tax or shipping.

And Sportsmans Guide sells 3-Brownells Mil Specs for $44.97 (members) and $49.97 (non-members)

But $18 FTF is still a good deal.

At Brownell's, trade price for MagLevel P-Mags is $16.55 in black. Brownell's milspecs go for $12.50. (I've tried some of these last - they're very good. )

Thanks for trying to get forum members a good price. It appears that the premium on AR magazines has ended. At the last Conroe gun show one dealer has a huge box of P-Mags for $10 without the window and $11 with the window.

It appears I jumped the gun guys. I got excited, and I sure thought I was getting a good price.
Anytime I see a good deal, I always try to spread it around. Next time, though, I'll do a little homework.
