These arrived today:
Fifty of them will go into the Deep Sleep, a few will get stuffed in the bag with my PC Charger, a few will get cycled into the Bag O’ Tricks, and the rest will be sold at sphincter-numbing prices to panic-driven people who really should have seen the handwriting on the wall a long time ago and need to be reminded that there are consequences to waiting until the last minute.
It would be great if you could sell the magazines you have allotted for sale at such a high margin that you cover the cost of the magazines you intend to keep.
Won’t be too hard. I plan on charging at least twice my price. Biggest headache is overcoming my desire to not sell them at all and keep them for myself.
I fight that desire regularly!!!
These guys seem to have the best deal on Gen2 Magpul AR magazines: 9.80 a magazine before shipping and tax. Standard shipping is also only 7.00.

dsg arms is a candy store for adult gun lovers…there kydex holsters aren’t bad either and they have a life time warranty…
I still have my original Glock 40S&W mags. Bought them about 1992. I continue to be amazed with them. I have only ever had one go bad out of 12. Never tried the Magpul or Korean mags. Just prefer the Glock factory originals. Why change when I only keep 12 on hand. Only have about 2K rounds through each so I don’t shoot them that much. Prefer the Ruger Security Six. Biggest threat around here are feral hogs.
They are not truly Glock Happy Sticks until fully loaded! Just sayin! TTFN
I have an ethical problem to deal with …
Years ago, a friend ended up selling me a couple cases of greentip 556 from some company I’d never heard of (Olympic, I think). Cheap cheap, since it seemed many or most of the rounds were oversized and wouldn’t chamber in any of his rifles. This despite the fact that the stuff is brass cased in new-in-the-box condition. I tried it and could get it to chamber either, so it’s been in hibernation waiting for times like these to flip for a sale.
Now that I could easily sell it to someone I don’t know for quite a bit more than I paid, I really think I’d be committing a sin to sell someone something like this that probably won’t work. Can you think of a reasonable way to describe this, perhaps something like “may not chamber in all rifles, buyer beware” and then sell it at a gun show? The only way I’ll use it would be to perhaps when I’m retired and have lots of time, to pull the bullets and empty the cases, and reload the stuff into other cases or try resizing these cases.
I understand what you are saying. Just today I sold a guy 2 boxes of 38 Special factory ammo that I really had no use for; $60 for what probably cost me $25. All because 8 months ago they bought a handgun and one box of target ammo, shot most of it up, and never replaced it.
