IIRC there was a wave of green ones coming in surplus a while back. Now I'm only seeing the black ones and smoke colored Arsenal ones.

Prices seems to be $44/mag across the board. Have we seen the last wave of surplus mags?

I'm 99% sure that those Circle 10 5.56 AK mags were not "surplus".

The 5.45 mags, and 7.62 mags yes, but I don't think the 5.56 mags.

All the 5.56 mags I've ever seen were new made for the commercial market.

A fair argument could be made that the Gen 1 mags that came in during the early 2000's were "surplus".

Kind of a grey area (as it pertains to the definition of surplus), as they were probably more of a Circle 10 factory surplus (vice state surplus) that got sold off once the market opened up.

Beryl mags are a better deal,  we will probably see a few more surplus dumps of those as Poland moves to their newer translucent mags versus the older black ones.

I keep hoping V Projekt will produce 5.55 mags,  since they are producing current 5.45 and 7. 62 ones.
