I must be a magoholic... I just bough 3 mags for a gun that I don't even own.

I just bought 3 Glock 22 hicaps for $90 each.  Why?   Because I could!

If that's not the definition of a magoholic, I don't know what is.

no you are very smart, you can sell them for more or just by a new gun

You are not a magoholic. I bought 3 hicap mags for the G23 and then I bought the gun 3 or 4 years later. I also have 5 hicap mags for a H&K USP 40 that I will buy some day.

glad to see that I am not the only one to think that way!

I doubt you're even close to the only one. I have about 100 Sten mags and 4 Sten parts kits, but I don't own a Sten. I've also got stocks for rifles I don't own, grips and holsters for handguns I don't own. I even bought a case of ammo cheap in hopes that one day I buy a firearm chambered in that cartridge. Maybe I'm weird?[%|]

Could those Sten mags be for your M11's ???
You wanna sell any of them ???

I've got a suppressed M11/9 (waiting on forms) with the Sten mag conversion done to it...
Need to have a pile of mags to feed those high ROF M11's...

I think Tapco is sold out right now...
I'm just looking for a bunch of cheap $5-$6 mags...
Haven't seen any lately...

Just a smart move.  I bought eight M14 mags (all the guy had) for $120 at a swap meet.  Couldn't turn down a price like that.  Got the rifle a year later.

No, because neither one of them have the Sten mag conversion done. I ended up with the mags several years ago in a trade. Then just recently when Tapco put their Sten kits on sale I went ahead and bought four of them to go along with the mags. Hopefully one day soon I'll get my FFL/SOT and CII and I can put them all together for some cheap fun.

If you're looking for some I would post a WTB ad on Bowers board. I'm sure someone has about a million they are looking to sell. If you're lucky you can find them in the $2-3 range.

That's even a nice little investment in Magpuls. [:)]

I have about 30 various US GI magazines for my AR, all in pretty good shape.

I have at least 6 high-caps for every pistol I own that takes high-caps.

I carry 4 spare magazines on my person when I'm "working," and more in the car. Oh, and a high-cap spare for my back-up gun.

I just bought about 30 AK-74 magazines (almost all NIW. The problem with that is that I don't own an AK clone (yet).

Do I have a problem?
