I recently received 21 brand new 30 round steel magazines for $7.95 each thanks to the good folks at AIM Surplus.  These magazines are brand new CHINESE magazines and are NOT ridge-backed. They are smooth-backed.

On this forum, AIM has said they don't know where the mags are from.  Said they got them via Yugoslavia with parts kits.  "Could" be made in China that were sent to Yugoslavian stockpiles.  Later sold out as surplus? Some call them "Chugos," as a result.  Anyway, I've got about 14 of them and love them, will be selling out my surplus ridgebacks shortly as a result.

I'd be willing to bet that they're imported from China to Eastern Europe and then exported to the USA to get around our "No China" weapons policy.

I don't know where they come from but nice mags and cheap. I've got 20 and may buy more.

Can someone point me to these?  All I can find are the $9.95, or 10 or more for $8.95

Those are the ones I got.  I may have mixed up the price.  That, or they went up.  Hell if I know, but still the best deal on the Internet.

I found the receipt in a box earlier today and... yes, they're $9.95 each, marked down to $8.95 each when purchasing 10 or more.  I was mistaken.

I bought 14 of them during the July 4th sale.  $8.06 each.  

By the way you can still get them today at that price.  The sale runs out at midnight.

I almost bought some but it said that MOST of them have metal followers. I would prefer metal followers and don't want to end up with plastic ones.
Can you add notes at the end of the order specifying metal followers?

I have bought over 50 of these (East Euros).  I also bought 10 of the Bulgys that they are not carrying anymore.  ALL the Bulgys had plastic followers.  But they were high quality and I don't think the plastic followers would ever be a problem.

Of the 50 Eastern European I have bought, NONE have had plastic followers.  

You may be able to request it but like I said, I have some of the plastic ones (Bulgys) and they have not caused any problems.  They appear to be very strong plastic.

edit...I'll have 64 when this order comes in...

Did I imagine it, or was the description updated?  I went to check the description and it said all metal followers.

Shipping for my 14 AK mags to NC was $12.57.  You can load up your shopping cart with what you want to buy and then enter your zip code and the website will tell you what your shipping charge will be.
