Checking all my sources, all of them are out of stock.

Contact the owner. If he doesn't have it in stock, he may be able to get it for you. He is a great guy to deal with.

I was picking them up for ~$30 on ebay (for my S&W 1076) from time to time. I picked up several, including three brand new still in the shrink-wrap.
About two weeks ago all heck broke loose and the prices skyrocketed. I saw a new in the shrink-wrap go for over $75 last week.
Keep an eye out- gun shows, auction sites etc. Good luck.

Midway sent out a bunch of backorder cancellations on the S&W Gen 3 hardware last week. I'm guessing S&W told them they wouldn't be filling the backorders.

Mec-Gar makes magazines for the 9x19 double-stack S&W 3rd Generation pistols. Nothing for any other caliber. Very nice magazines.
ProMag makes magazines for the 9x19, .40, and .45 guns, but my experience with them is such that I cannot recommend them.

I can find 9mm S&W 1st, 2nd and 3rd gen mags all day long at reasonable prices. Occasionally I'll find .40 and .45 but I rarely see 10mm.

I have a 1006 and have successfully scrounged a few extra mags over the past couple of years. Hindsight being 20/20, I would have bought 5 of the factory mags during the last production run.
I found most of my extras in the used mag bin at long established Mom & Pop gunshops. I passed on a used white follower example at the Tanner show in Denver last weekend for $50 because the guide dimples seemed to be much shallower than normal.
I wonder if Smith made these 3rd gen mags in house, or brought them from a 3rd party? Seems like somebody, like Midway, could contract directly if the second case it true.

Here is one for a 1006. Not mine and too pricey for me ....

Go online to Summitgunbrokers.com and get a phone number. Call and ask him to check his back room. He often has goodies hidden away that are not listed on his site.
great prices on used handguns.

I emailed Summit asking about how to purchase the mags listed on the site. The next day the price went from $35 to $45.

I'm member over on the smith-wessonforum.com also and after asking the same question about magazines for a 6906, I got a response from another member who wanted to sell a couple. It's a good source for S&W info and parts.

Here's a source for high quality aftermarket 69 series mags.

I use them in my 469, and these new ones are better than the 30 year old factory mag I got with the gun.
