Aimsurplus is reliable, but they are out of stock, as I'm sure you know.  :D

Good luck.

Yep, I know.  Anyone know anywhere they might be in stock?  I just hope that they will be available before our lord and saviour obama takes them away!

Lucas,

I've got several on backorder with Brownells.

Obama can't do anything until Jan. 20th at the earliest and that's still a good 2 months away.  I don't think anything will happen for some time so you've got plenty of time.  Don't fall for all the "ban" hype.  They will be plentiful again when all the backorders are caught up.

If your still worried about it, then just start stocking up on some standard Alum. mags.  They will serve you well until you can get some more Pmags.

I spent 45 minutes calling, and looking online and Magpul has on their site" all individual sales are suspended until the distributors get caught up"... But PMAGS are "Out of Stock" :-\

Lancer and others are still around. Gun shows usually always have milsurp Alum. AR mags, watch for gouging!

I agree after the initial "rush" Magpul will get caught up and will be available again soon. The economic "issues" will buy time to get some more.

I'm glad I stocked up on G.I. 30 round mags back when the army surplus store had them for $5 new. If I knew years ago what I know now, I would have mortgaged the house to buy guns, ammo, and mags as an investment.
