THE IMAGE ABOVE IS A PAID ADVERTISEMENT
I remember reading in several different threads in this forum months ago that a huge shipment of surplus 5.45 mags would be coming in. Are there any updates on this? I just converted my Saiga 5.45 last week and dont want to have nothing but orange tapco mags anymore

Or were those posts just conjecture?

Well, Century was supposed to be releasing Tantals again this month, so i assumed that would coincide with the arrival of 5.45 magazines. Haven't seen any on the market yet though.. Tantals or magazines.

This is the problem with imported surplus...mags, ammo, parts....you just don't always know until it actually arrives.

According to K-Var's facebook, they claim "we're expecting more 5.45 magazines to arrive any time now."

They probably won't be surplus mags though.

They already have 5.45's but charge $35+ for them. No thank you. Maybe if they're getting some in, others will to and charge a reasonable amount.

I think they mean black ones.

The ones on K-Var's site now are plum and green.
