Fair price for USGI M14 mags?

[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Fair price for USGI M14 mags?

Posted: 1/11/2006 5:12:31 AM EDT

I have some USGI "BRW-S1" marked mags that are unused except for storage wear that I am planning on selling. What is a fair price for these? My guess is around $30 a mag plus shipping seems fair? Maybe a little more? They literally have not seen a single round- no scrape on the follower at all.

Oh, and this is not a for sale ad...I already have four people who want to buy the mags, just need to know what they are going for these days.

Thanks!

I just bought 11 mags off of here for 175 shipped.

Some USGI's from Armalite, some 57's and a couple of others.

I think that's about 16 bucks a piece and I consider it a good deal.

Quoted:
Armalite is selling USGI mags for $25, which is about the same price as new Checkmate mags.

Simple put, the days of overpriced used USGI M-14 mags is coming to a end.

+1, I received my Armalite mags two weeks ago, they are great.

What are new, unused ones going for?

$25 plus a reasonable amount for shipping seems to be the going rate.

I hate to broach this but I will. Midway was advertising M1 mags made in taiwan for around $10. I have no idea how reliable they are but it seemed like a good deal.

They are the Taiwanese mags. Quality and reliability ranges from good to terrible.

Thanks for the headsup guys, I have priced them appropriately. Ouch, these used to cost A LOT more when I bought them, but I need the cash for some more AK mags!
