Glad I built my AR before this madhouse happened... As far as pmag's I would check your gun shows, there are a few places in Sac that I've seen as well. I just buy mine in Utah when I go for business, same with ammo...

I was calling all shops in Las Vegas about 2 weeks ago, not a single Pmag left in stock ANYWHERE. All the shops were dry. I cant see myself spending $60+ on a single Pmag.

The whole thing will calm down in a month... prices will stabilize.

If you're worried about ammo, go buy a reloading press. I just got a Lee Progressive with all of the accessories for ~$500 OTD
If you're willing to deal with single stage press, you can probably get OTD for $300

I will be the first person to say it **** Feinstein. When she gives up her CCW(conceal carry) I will think about giving up my rights to own guns. What is so special that she has the right to defend herself and the rest of us dont? At any given moment someone could break into our homes and we wont have our guns to protect ourselves.

exactly. Why do we have to give up our rights when they don't have to. Yes we are not as high risked as they are but who says we shouldn't have the same rights to defend ourselves if we have to.

I am going to laugh my way into a whole new arsenal when this dies down in a couple months and all the people that bought 2k+ colts and 800$/1k of 223 need to pay their cc bills and have to sell all this stuff super cheap.

I hope that happens, if the ban goes through then we are all pretty SOL. Thats the part that sucks if the ban happens and we dont get anything at these ridiculous prices we are SOL but if it doesn't happen then they are SOL. Either way this is screwing us over. If only things were back to normal prices and people weren't hoarding all the ammo, mags etc. I also hear that the government is doing very thorough background checks on the guys who just bought their weapons.

I bought windowed 30's pmag DISASSEMBLED REBUILD KITS at a place in Indiana (ol' lady goes to Purdue) for $18/each. They had a wall full of em. I'll be back there on the 21st of this month and I'm actually driving back as she's done with school. I'm thinking of buying a handful more DISASSEMBLED REBUILD KITS depending on what my budget allows. If you're serious about getting your hands on some DISASSEMBLED REBUILD KITS PM me your number, give me cash for the amount of DISASSEMBLED REBUILD KITS you want plus whatever their tax was. I'll grab em for you although to make it worth my while I'd need a six pack of good beer per 10 DISASSEMBLED REBUILD KITS. Last I was there they had FDE and Black. They even had a handful of surefire 60's DISASSEMBLED REBUILD KITS for i think $100. Either way I thought I'd let you interested parties know.

Here's what I did with mine:
