usually DSA is the place to go for good used mags
i personally have bought many through DSA and most did not need a refinishing job, most looked new enough to throw in an ammo can and not worry about them i will buy beat up ones for cheap3$ish a piece and blast, park, and refinish them |

I remember two years ago picking up 100 for $2/each from Century when they had a sale.

Did you clean them up yet. I got 10 and few months ago and they looked pretty rough. but after I wiped them down, they looked pretty good. give them a little TLC, you may be surprised at the difference it makes.

Yes they went into the ceaning vat and still in terrible shape, the only thing I can figure is they are geting to the bottom of the barrel these days and what I received was the rejects from the reject pile...
Anyway I will pay extra for a quality magazine. Now I will bead blast these, K-Kote and bake, they will be OK, but compared to the ones I purchased from DSA at the NRA show in Houston a few years ago for $4, these are crap... The $4 mags were like brand new. 77 |

You probably just hit an unlucky part of the pile. I got 10 of the $7 from them 2 weeks ago and 8 of them were brand new looking, didn't even look like they've been put in a gun. The other 2 had finish wear, but only 1 of them I'd call ugly.
I've gotten over 100 of the $7 mags the last few months. Only had 2 that didn't function perfectly, and not too many that were ugly once they were cleaned up. Basically what I'm saying is, I wouldn't write them off from that one batch. |

That's just the 'excellent' ones. The 'good' ones are still $7. I've ordered a few 'excellent' ones, and while excellent they were, half the good ones I've gotten are just as nice. |

I liked them better when they were $5 each! Good mags though. I would like to pick up another 20 or so but will not loose any sleep if I don't.
