Well this breaks my heart as Okay's are my go-to. I ordered a whole bunch a few months back when Big Tex had them for $8 and just ordered another 20 this morning after finding this thread.

Should have plenty for the rest of my lifetime, but that's an end of an era

Amd I don't care who buys the machines, just like D&H is the old LaBelle, they won't be as good.

And yes, the sky is falling, lol

I have been using 20 round Okay mags for 20+ years, mostly as range mags. I have never had one fail.

I ordered five more while they are available.

I'm not sure how many 30 rounders I have, but it must be several dozens.

I received a ten pack from Lanbos recently.  Gray E2 with blue follower, dated 1/21.  Has anyone received any variation with a 2022 production stamp?

I got 5 tan 30s and 5 black 20s, all gray followers, all 2021 dated.

I think I remember reading that they normally released in batches throughout the year.  Hopefully we will be seeing a resupply with the vendors.  At this point, I'm only interested in gray 20 rounders for retro purposes.

Got mine through locked and Loaded.

They're just a drop shipper, so, while they were $9.89 each, they nailed me for $30 shipping on 20 mags.

Got ten E2 FDE from Botach. They have standard magpul followers not the blue style.

FYI - Okay E2 mags were never intended for M855A1 ammo. The patented feedlips were designed to improve feeding M855 ammo.

I ordered 8 Okay gray E2 30 rounders from Weapons Outfitters, on the EE.  They shipped fast.  6 had Magpul followers and 2 had the blue followers.  I'll order from them again.

They are looking for buyers for their magazine business as well.

We'll be grabbing a pallet or two of their mags, whatever we can afford really.

Did a little contact sleuthing and sent an email with your contact info and a link to this thread. Complete shot in the dark but worth a try.

@weaponoutfitters — can you help us out?

Edit: Confirmed good sleuth. Now to cross our fingers for PSA SureFeeds.

I'll love you forever if you can save Okay's mags- no homo.

Well, maybe a little, but it's 2022, so that's encouraged.

This thread encouraged me to order up some of the 20 rounders.  I really like the straight bodies.  These are my first Okays but I think I need to get some more 20’s and some 30’s.

Wipe them with a rag/CLP.....they'll look great. Just marring in the dry film coating.

By far my favorite mag company, ordered a nice addition to my stock of mags when I heard about this.

I haven’t confirmed but I’ve read multiple posts that mentioned they also make the Brownells branded mags, if PSA doesn’t pick the tooling/machinery up maybe Brownells will?

I mean, who wouldn’t want to run mags QC’d by that sexy mullet.

The grey mags may scuff easy but the black mags scratch and flake.

Are you sure?

I thought that stopped once their last USGI contract was satisfied?

I know that they took over in '06:

2006 marked a pivotal point in Co-Line's history. In addition to the purchase of Goalsetter Systems, Co-Line began producing 20-round and 30-round gun clips for the M16 rifle for the Department of Defense as well as the civilian market."


Currently Brownells has this verbiage on their site:

Each Brownells 5.56mm AR-15 magazine is built to military specifications and are held to ISO quality-control standards and are made by Brownells itself.

Are they going to continue shipping mags until the end of the year, or once everyone's current stock is gone that's the end?

I was curious about the Surefeeds, if Okay is still manufacturing and shipping to distributors for the time being (end of the year?) or if they are done with production and what everyone has in stock is it.

Great. Okay was the only aluminum mag I used. I'm just finding this info, so I had to throw down on an 8 pack form botach of the standard version in tan. I just dropped a lot of money before this amd wasn't prepared, otherwise I'd buy more.
