New USGI $14 30rd. Mags - Page 2

Okiegunner · January 10, 2013, 05:28 PM

I have a C-Products magazine (came with a rifle) and as a matter of fact it is fully loaded right now sitting in a pouch. I am headed to the range this evening and it is one of the magazines I'm taking with me. I have never had a single problem with this magazine. It is one of the grey 30 rounders and looks like and functions just as well as my BCM magazines.

For a decent quality magazine, I for one have no problems (in this climate) waiting 3-4 weeks for my mags to arrive. If necessary even a little longer. I'm not hurting for mags right now. I just wanted to pick some decent ones up at a reasonable price. (maybe, possibly, who knows, while we still can)

I understand supply and demand. I understand folks making a profit. Its just really nice and refreshing seeing a business that is not attempting to skin the hide off of the buying public.

I for one will remember the businesses that treated me fairly. Cabelas being another one. They are still selling 7.62X39 at $350.00/1000 rds.

**Dr.Rob** · January 10, 2013, 05:45 PM

looks very much like C-Products. I have several of their mags.

Good to know there's another mfg of 5 rounders. (These are tough to find and expensive, I wanted a couple for varminting)

I may have to order a couple 20's and see what happens.

Teachu2 · January 10, 2013, 06:03 PM

Thanks for the heads-up. I just ordered some 10rds in stainless - before those become "standard" for those of you outside California!

Heck, they might even have 'em in stock....

Kramer Krazy · January 11, 2013, 02:23 PM

I figured it was too late when I saw this yesterday evening (plus it was too late to call them). I decided to give them a call a few minutes ago to get a busy signal and then have a woman answer on my second try. I was interested in the 9mm mags and bought three 20-rounds since they were in stock (they were out of 32's). They did not have any 223 mags in stock, so I back-ordered a few of those and was told 4-6 weeks, but that it may be sooner. I don't really need the 223 mags, but I figured what the heck.

Ranger Roberts · January 24, 2013, 01:46 PM

It looks like a bunch of us ordered mags on the same day (1/10/13). Has anyone heard anything? I received a confirmation email but that is it. I emailed them the other day trying to get the status of my order and haven't got anything back yet. Just wondering if anyone else has heard anything. Thanks guys!

They are said to be using the old C Products machinery to make the 9MM mags. They sure look like the C Product 9MM mags I have. The ones I have work great, so I ordered 5 of these. (20 rounders)

I think my order went in the following day- no "shipping" email here yet.

sixgunner455 · January 24, 2013, 03:33 PM

I have a 5.56 20 round ASC magazine in aluminum. It works perfectly.

I ordered a couple 6.8 magazines from their website a couple of weeks ago, but have yet to see the charge applied to my card.

USAF_Vet · January 24, 2013, 03:34 PM

I think they said back order was 4-5 weeks. I won't get concerned until mid February.

Hypothetically speaking, if a mag ban were to pass while the magazines are back ordered, would they legally be allowed to ship them, or will they have to cancel all back orders?

Depends on what the ban said and when it takes effect.

M1key · January 24, 2013, 03:42 PM

I have ASC 30-round 7.62x39 mags. they are stainless, well built, and function fine.

They better if they charged my card.

If not, they better credit the money back.

pty101 · January 24, 2013, 05:36 PM

I got the same email... They are backordered and i would think about mid February theyll come in, hopefully sooner. I got an email from AIM that they got some in stock yesterday so ASC is shipping they just have a lot of orders to fill

Okiegunner · January 24, 2013, 08:28 PM

I'm also waiting. Truth be told...They should really be busy! One of the few that did not jack-up prices.

USAF_Vet · February 6, 2013, 12:39 AM

Anyone heard anything about their mags yet?

**Dr.Rob** · February 6, 2013, 03:35 AM

Nothing yet, been 3 weeks since I ordered.

gotigers · February 6, 2013, 08:42 AM

My Jan 10 order still has not shipped. I called late last week. I was told end of Feb. They have not charged my card yet. The nice lady on the phone said they won't charge the card until the mags ship.

**Walkalong** · February 7, 2013, 07:24 AM

I ordered 5 9MM and 5 .223 mags on Jan 13th. They did charge my card, and no mags yet.

Speedgoat · February 7, 2013, 11:09 AM

Same here, nothing yet. I didn't really expect to see or hear from them this soon yet either. If I hear nothing by the end of February then I may call them and inquire as to what's up.

USAF_Vet · February 7, 2013, 09:26 PM

I ordered mine on Jan 10. They didn't charge me yet. I had an initial expected delay of 4-5 weeks, and it's just at the 4 week mark so I might have been a little premature in wondering where they are. I won't really get concerned for another couple weeks.

Browning · February 8, 2013, 03:45 PM

Ordered two 17 round 6.8 SPC mags on Jan 24th and they arrived today.

New in wrapper.

They fit and appear to function.

USAF_Vet · February 8, 2013, 04:28 PM

Ew. I'd be a little upset with the surface scratches.

But, beggars can't be choosers. The lips and followers look nice, and that's the most important part. I'd be upset, but I'd get over it.

Would you really be upset at scratches? Are they safe queen magazines?

**Dr.Rob** · February 8, 2013, 07:12 PM

Every mag I've ever had with that finish comes out of the bag scratched.
