Anyone get their 30rnd 12 pack of Bulgie mags from ORF yet?  I'm getting one if you guys have been happy with them.  Thanks!

12 mags for $36 bucks??
What other mags are you gonna buy for $3 bucks each??
They aren't gonna be rusted like some of the SG mag deal mags were....
What is there not to be happy about?

Im sure they will be fine.. besides if you wait to see how people like them,
then debate about it... Yada Yada Yada...

...they probably will run out of them, and you will miss out on the deal.

Now go order them!!!

Come with pouches too!! If you don't order now you may kick yourself later.

I'm hoping for lots of Plum and Bakelite in my 36 mags!!

Todd just put these up for sale last night.  3 bucks a mag - I'm not real worried.

I'll let you know next week

I guess you guys are right.  I ordered one new 45rnd Bulgy and then one 12pack of used 30rnd mags.  I wasn't sure about the $100 for the 45rnd mag but they're pretty rare.  I'd have bought two or three but with Christmas approaching I don't have the money.  Hopefully I'll be able to find a few on the EE for sale later!

I ordered 2 sets. 1 for me and 1 for my dad for Christmas. Nice stocking stuffers, if only the rest of my family was this easy to buy stuff for. I dont think my sisters would like a dozen ak74 mags, lol. I hope they mix them up so I get 2 or 3 different colors.

For some reason I can't get past the 'verify order' page!  Gah, how frustrating.  I've tried like 5 times and it keeps giving me errors with the shipping.Edit - Apparently the USPS Priority mail option doesn't work for whatever reason.  *Sigh* Guess I'll have to use UPS.  *Prays that his delivery guy doesn't 'misplace' this order.*

Not to get too off topic...but I went to my local UPS distribution center to pick up my order that came in from K-VAR... and the place was a zoo!  The method used to unload the trucks was definitely designed for speed, not care.  I saw at least 3 boxes fall off of the conveyor belt (greater than 3') while I was there.  I use UPS as little as possible, especially since they damaged my SLR-105 not even 1 week ago .

I have to agree with you there.  That's why I wanted to use USPS.  My mailman is great - brings any packages I get right to my door when they arrive.  I've lost numerous packages through UPS, and I can't even begin to count all the damaged goods that I've received that were no doubt damaged by their handling procedures.  I won't even get into all the "signature required" packages that were simply left at the door without having been signed! -GreatWarAZ

Same here, I called them and they said they only take UPS ground. So I ordered anyway, but the price went up. Still a great deal as long as the mags work.

not a chance, they are very different cartridges.  they might now have shipped out yet though so give ORF a call first thing monday.

I called ORF earlier today to add another 45rnd RPK mag and the saleswoman on the phone told me that the Used bulgy 45rnd and the russian 45rnd are both sold out.  The new bulgy 45rnd mags are all thats left.  I got another one so I'll have two.  

That will make a total of 12 new bulgy 30rnd mags I already have, 12 used blugy 30rnd mags I'll be getting from ORF, and 2 RPK-74 45rnd mags.  I guess I'll keep the one of the RPK mags new and use the other.  I think I'll have to buy more AR mags now...just to keep up with the AK!

Now you're just going to have to buy an AK-74, no other choice.

I was afraid of that. I gotta read more carefully. Fortunately I caught my goof within 15 minutes of ordering so maybe they'll read the email before shipping. If they do show up I'll post something.

As for getting a -74, I may one of these days, but first I want to get a Savage .308 and AR of some kind. It'll probably wind up being a pistol.

I just received my mags about 30 minutes ago.  They came in pouches!  The vast majority are black circle 10.  However, I got one brown and 4 plums!  All mags show service wear but are all very usable in good to very good condition.  Pouches range from tattered to very good/nearly new.  Excellent value/deal.  ORF rocks!

I just got 24 mags. 23 of them are black, and one is brown. They look like they are in good condition but I didn't clean them all off yet. The pouches are a extra I didn't know was comming, and they are all serviceable. This was a realy great deal.

Now that's disappointing I know that these pouches are supposed to be random. But If I know I were getting that many black mags, I wouldn't have ordered them in the first place. Yeah there cheap mags but I still hope with 36 mags I get a good balance of bakelites, plums, and browns.

I like variety, too.

I'm thinking that, with all the hundreds of us ordering, we'll be able to do some trading later.

UPS=United Parcel Smashers

My Aimpoint came though the USPS and the box looked like the mail truck ran over one end. I took a bunch of pictures in case I had to file a damage claim but it was just the box was smashed.

at the prices per mag, we cant complain about a lack of diversity..hell they could be purple and we would be getting a deal..as long as they function fine we are getting a steal.

I think I ordered them the day before thanksgiving. I'm in state so it doesn't take long to get to me.

I wish I would have received a few different colors, but I can't bitch at this price. All the mags are in good condition, and I will probably sell a few because I don't need 23 black ones.

$16.50 for shipping! What a FUCKING RIP-OFF
ETA: I now know that ORF charges a "one price covers all" for the initial on line order and then corrects to the actual cost when they ship. Learn something new every day.

UPS cost about $9 to ship a package that size about 80 miles.  $16.50 to AZ is a good price.

Distance X  weight = Shiping cost.

I would advise you to take a look at the half dozen posts referencing the actual shipping charges...read then write.
