Sons Of Liberty--Anybody In Dire Need Of AR Mags?

I listed a square notch preban last week for 120 and it sold in about 2 minutes with 2 other people asking for it before I could mark it as sold.

I should of asked for more money.

I've got nothing against free markets and Free Enterprise. The price is whatever the market will bear. But you didn't turn around and breezily PM me (like a lazy assh*le) to go find you a dozen mags cheap.

Sourcing them is tricky. Pre 2010 I would actually find a ton of preban mags in the used mag bin at kittery. Occasionally I'd find some on gun broker. The most recent one I traded off an original owner for it.

It's a shame MA is the way it is. A plastic box with a spring in it can open you up to jail time. Dumb.
 
Check it out. Some shitb*g with $175 dollar Glock mags in the EE PM's me:

I can use up to a dozen 20-rounders
Thanks


I told him to go f*ck himself.
Hey that is me and I am not some flipper. Ask anyone here and cool your jets. Just thought you were trying to help. And I did pay more that that for my few extra Glock mags I offered up. I have 30’s but can use some 20’s. That is all.

Well my bad then.

I probably have 50 messages from people looking for mags, and I'm doing the best I can to match up folks from AR15.com with NES'ers in need.

I clicked through your posts out of due diligence, saw a NH location, saw the $175 Glock mags and came to my completely unreasonable conclusion.

I'll talk to my Rabbi about it.
 
I was very disappointed to see a lot I had sold was listed and sold for double+ in your classifieds. :-/
That's why I particularly want to get a few into the hands of relatively young, new shooters who have better things to spend their money on.
That’s why I’ll only sell for fair market value now. I’ve sold things in the past here and other places for what I paid even though they increased in value. Within a week they are back up for 50% more.

It’s a shame, but when someone asks me “will you take $ xx for it?” I tell them no because of flippers.
 
I could use a few more mags at reasonable pricing. Mainly 30 rounders but I'd take some 20 rounders too.
Well you should definitely head on over to AR15.com and PM the people there who are offering mags.

I don’t usually come into GD anymore, but I saw this thread.

I know I have some pre-ban mags. I have some GI AR mags, and I probably have some pre-bans for other stuff as well.

If one of you guys needs some, shoot me a PM and I’ll take a look what all I have.

I’m not going to sell them for $10 or something, but I’m not going to gouge the shit out of you either.



Seems like a decent lead to me.

Here is a direct link:

Hope this helps.
 
Guy on Gun Broker just cancelled the auction I won for a lot of colt preban externally dated mags. 6-94. They did not put in the auction no shipping to Ma. After his “research” which took since Monday he said he can’t ship them to me and it will take 5 days for my refund.

Morengo Guns Morengo Illinois.
 
Thanks for starting the post in the AR15 forum, reading all the replies and support for people in MA is very uplifting.

Free America is full of good, selfless people.

Imagine if the Founding Fathers were f*cking neckbeards. What a sh*t-show this country would have been.

ETA: Oh, and I did not start the thread on ARFCOM. I have just worked diligently at cross-pollination.

It’s true. I had an FFL in NH go way above and beyond for me today, all because he wanted to help us out down here. I hope you guys up in the Windham area give Canobie Lake Firearms your business.
 
I missed the boat on this, mainly because I don't live in NE anymore but whats this new ban? Are they banning the pre-bans or limiting the transfer of prebans? I've got some "original pre-bans" and some M14/FAL mags kicking around I'd trade for a replacement but not sure what dates are good now

Mags need to have been maufactured prior to September 1994, and must be in the state and lawfully owned by August 1st.

Needless to say, the clock is ticking.

So prebans are still prebans, but come August, whatcha got it what you got? Can't buy prebans anymore? How are they going to track that? Whats to keep dudes from FTF or otherwise? So dumb

They can't, they just want to create hysteria and have a portion of gun owners turn into pant shitters and stay with 10 rounders.

It's ridiculous

Honestly they can’t, but it totally screws over the next gen of shooters. Anyone without an LCTA by 8/1 can not have legally owned them. They are playing the long game to disarm and confiscate.

Ahhhh interesting spin, wouldn't have thought of that. So, what about inheritance? Just toss or turn in all of dads and dads, dads stuff?

Do you know anyone interested in a Greek SAR8 (HK licensed copy of a G3)? I think these were all pre-94, but post-89 import ban.

I have a pile of 80s vintage M14 mags, many (most?) parkerized GI issue. Sold my M1As/M14s, so no need for them.

I've only seen this conversation around AR mags, should I look into finding a way to get these to MA?

You Ma**h***s are going to make me sort through magazines in a ridiculously hot garage...
Small price to pay to thumb the nose at tyranny.

On a more serious note, any need for pre-ban Beretta 92 mags? Not sure what I have in my collection, if there's a need I'll look, otherwise I'll concentrate on AR stuff.

I thought the point and spirit of the new law is to 'age you out'. When you old geysers die off and your guns and mags are not transferable [keep them off the streets an shiet], look at it this way - how can a young shooter in his early 20s in MA prove he's owned a preban 30 year old mag the whole time? lol.
 
SPMX texted me:

I have several new pre-ban Norinco M1A magazines I'd sell for replacement with new Checkmate M1A magazines. Many of these are still in original grease.

I have several NIW US 1960s/1970s M1A magazines, those are going to be around $50 each since that's what I have in them. I'll have to check each. A couple might be lightly used.

I also have about a dozen, mostly NIW, WWII M1 Carbine 15-rnd magazines, those are also going to be $50 since that's what collectors pay for them. A couple have very light rust.

I have a handful of pre-94 20 rnd and 30 rnd AR-15 magazines, I'll let those go for replacement with new Magpul.

Let me know what you're interested in / want photos of any of these. I'm going out to dinner and won't be home for a few hours. I'll get back to you ASAP.

Here's what I have:

In pic below

Adventure Line (2), BFI (1), FN (1), OKAY (1), and Parsons (1).
- don't know anything about the BFI. You guys can chime in with any pre-ban / post-ban info.
- looking for window PMAG replacement value.

Thermolds
- 2 marked H22 and 1 marked H21, whatever that means.
- looking for 3 thermolds for 2 window PMAGs. Not separating.


Not sure how these below are affected by the MA law, nor do I know if these are even desirable, but I'll make them available if somebody wants them.

Not pictured

5 M1A USGI mags, stamped BRW S-I
- looking for CMI USGI replacement value

4 M1A metal mag bodies (bodies ONLY; no floor plate, no spring, no follower)
- does not have any stamping; body looks to be refinished with some type of gray traction coating; 5 dot dimple on the latch plate BUT middle dimple is in the lower half of the latch plate.
- looking for 1 CMI USGI replacement value for all 4 bodies

2 FAL metal mags
- no markings at all
- I owned two FAL rifles with these mags before the AWB but I have no way to prove anything with these mags
- looking for PMAG AR10 20 round mag replacement value for each


I really would prefer to deal with someone here, especially if you are an established member. If you are a new ARFCOM member, prefer that you buy a membership before we transact or get a tenured member to vouch for you.

Trying to help MA guys out. Hope all this is reasonable.
I am looking, msg me here? Northern mass seacoast near nh
