There's a seller in Amherst, MA, that lists his wares on armslist. He's also posted on here, with astronomical pricing. He's legit* but you're going to get poked hard. *Second-hand info.Would anyone know best places (websites/stores) to buy preban glock 17 mags? I've seen some websites but cant tell how trust worthy they are

Won't the constant shaking or the funnel and tube feed assembly effect POA/POI?
I want a gun that uses a funnel and not a magazine. Just dump a full box in and BLAM!, BLAM!, BLAM!, BLAM!, BLAM!, ect...
Good advice. I would also add that full metal lined are worth the premium and avoid non full metal lined as they frequently suck.One thing you can do OP (jr4317) is if you get to travel a lot, or leave this area on occasion, walk into every Local Gun Shop you can in a free state and rummage through the
"USED MAGS" box, or ask the Proprietor if he has any "Used Glock Magazines" in the flavor you are looking for. Just remember to study up on what is Good to Go in Mass... and what isn't.
You may get lucky from time to time and find and old $5-dollar "square-notch" for your pet's hungry mouth...
that would make sense, thankshere's a helpful answer for you since none of the others seem to be interested in helping, I believe I've seen some at Four Seasons, Collectors in Stoneham, and Northshore Firearms in Middleton (under new management before you guys lose your minds screaming about how awful they are, blah blah). Give them a call and see what they have in stock. IMO a shop will be the safest place for you to buy one since they're on the hook if they sell you one that's not pre-ban.
Now here's an idea I can get behind--the old New York reload with multiple Glocks.The hell with paying those prices. You can pick up another g-17 for the cost of a few pre bans. Plus it looks cool when your shooting 2 guns at once.

I agree with you. I was curious about the larger preban mags for a home defense gun, however (but based off of feedback, theyre as expensive as I had presumed). Seems easier to me to have extra rounds in one mag than to have to grab an extra mag in a worst case scenariojr4317, another thing to consider is your loadout. Some guys are happy to have just what will fit in their carry gun and aren't worried about spare mags or their capacity.
If that is your thinking, then the largest cap you can find would be best, but spend a little more and get a mag that is "like new", because that one "is for all the marbles".
Others want max-cap in the carry piece, and one or two backup mags of max-cap. That is fine, and what I strive for. But the critical thing is dependability.
It is far better to have a lower round count on magazines you can trust your life too, than a cargo-pants pocket load of old questionable "U-notches" that you found for short money.
If money is the deciding factor, buy 1 really new, great quality max-cap for the carry gun and back up with extremely dependable 10-rounders that are so "faithful" they are boring...
Then replace those with great max-cap mags, when you can find them...

haha, I am actually surprised with the number of responsesLook at it this way, that was only your second post and it spawned 2 pages of fun. That’s a win.
That image is consistently pedaled as fact with no backing.Good advice. I would also add that full metal lined are worth the premium and avoid non full metal lined as they frequently suck.
Here's an image that will help with identification. The two dots are the key.

Do you have anything better?That image is consistently pedaled as fact with no backing.
I have a jig and fixture to add those to mags that don't have them. It was approved by Maura. Jack.Good advice. I would also add that full metal lined are worth the premium and avoid non full metal lined as they frequently suck.

Yep. Just don't join the Guns of Mass facebook groups as Scrivener is alive and well? on that group...And to think that you will never know the feeling of being skewered by Scrivener. Son, you have it easy starting on NES now.
“Prebans” can most reliably be found at the bottom of an empty wallet.
Edit: I am curious why people keep asking this question, is there some kind of ban I am not aware of?
