try to get a group of forty of more mags, that reaches very deep discounts, and its not hard to get there.
IIRC you can mix and match any amount to get that 40 count. reaching forty used to knock 60% off retail.

Why would anyone spend $33 and change ($41.64 - 25%) for a Metalform mag when you can buy a Wilson Combat for $31.95? http://www.wilsoncombat.com/a_magazines.aspYou do, you just don't know it. They OEM to a good number of the major manufacturers. Springfield mags? Metalform. Colt mags? Metalform (or Checkmate). Poke deeply around the web (I did, after a shooter here recommended them to me over the Wilsons...I'll let him jump in here if he wants with his experience with Wilsons, McCormicks, and the Metalforms). You'll find them coming up glowingly positive almost across the board. You've got to dig for some of the reviews, but those who know them seem to be very devoted. -Mark

actual price for the 8 round fixed base mags is something like 14 dollars and change per mag, Metalform makes the best mags out there in my mind.

And for the record, Blued Steel is not who recommended them to me. That's two votes for these being great mags.
I'll contact them tomorrow and get some details.

Any more interest in this? I'm in for at least 5, probably 10 if the price is right.
