THE IMAGE ABOVE IS A PAID ADVERTISEMENT These things were going for $11 a month ago now the best I can find is $15/mag. I have 0 need for more AK mags but I do like to stock up just in case  Think it's worth it?

I see them as high as $30 online. I missed out on the 5 minutes they were $11 on Aims and have purchased some at $15. I've seen them as high as $20 at gun shows down here. $15 isn't too bad in my opinion.

I would say it depends on the condition of the magazine. In the past I had purchased my used Yugo mags at Apex when mags when they were listed as being in 'Good Condition'. Some I had to sand down and reblue, but they all functioned properly. Now they are currently listed as 'Fair', so they may take longer to fix them up.
I recently took a chance with the the 'new' Yugoslavian 30 rd AK 47 magazines that Arms of America are selling for $17.99. They were in fact brand new and even had the stinciled numbers on them just like my previous surplus Yugo mags had. They look and feel the same, so I am pleased, even though it cost me a little more. I did not have to spend any time to fix them up. |

I ordered one Yugo mag from Wideners before they all disappeared, and the mag looks brand new. However on closer inspection, I noticed a dent in the mag body. I believe they are sold as used. I don't think the dent will affect function as it is towards the front of the mag. It is located about mid body I guess I could just load it up and see if the follower functions correctly.

AIMs a great business to deal with and Bryan seems like a good guy. He's in business to make money but I think he sees value in not overcharging (because he could) in the short term in order to retain customers for the long term. |
