SaigaFodder 0 Posted March 24, 2007 Report Share Posted March 24, 2007 I can't understand why they cost so much. I knew why right after the AWB died but they are still so expensive. Do they still make them? Military contracts making them scarce? What's the scoop? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bvamp 604 Posted March 24, 2007 Report Share Posted March 24, 2007 yes, they are however, not really an import ok part. the russian factory makes them currently, and in quantitiy. you just have to order them privately out of country is all. its a slight hassle to get them.

I ordered 4 from a guy in russia through this forum a couple years back so I know what you are talking about. I just don't see as many being sold anymore so I wasn't sure.

Bvamp 604 Posted March 24, 2007 Report Share Posted March 24, 2007 the ten round USA made mags came out, is probably why you see a decline in 8 round mag offereings., by normal gun collector trends, you can expect the FACTORY ORIGINAL PART to increase in price due to people buying the ten rounders instead. they will become proportionately scarcer.

305diver 2 Posted March 25, 2007 Report Share Posted March 25, 2007 Any leads on where to get the 8 rounders under $100? thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GTwannabe 1 Posted March 25, 2007 Report Share Posted March 25, 2007 I seem to remember some of our Russian contacts saying that it was very difficult to obtain magazines right now. Something about Izmash being inundated with military contracts (re-arming Iraqi police, etc), so civilian production has been scaled way back. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kresk 10,063 Posted March 25, 2007 Report Share Posted March 25, 2007 Any leads on where to get the 8 rounders under $100?thanks There's a bunch on eBay now for $99 (buy now $110.) Don't think you're going to find them any cheaper. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
