in the past month ive seem the price of magazines go up, ak mags were 22 each and they are now 25, and even the ar mags are going up locally, to almost 23 each. do the shops know something i don't? Im in central OR
As the magmeister please let me give my two cents: Increased cost of metals. Increased cost of shipping due to fuel cost. Increased demand by people like ourselves who realize exactly how bad things are getting and are stocking up. price of gas,gold,milk,oil, and everything else is up! Price of the dollar is down, the stock markets are dow, now I am feeling down. anyway hpoe this helped answer your questions.
Local guys/gunshow vendors always are super high. If you are looking for AK mags good deals can be had. AR mags...heck those are almost as cheap as AK mags if you know where to look.
