Just dropped custom surfboard money on mags and not happy about it. Is there anyone who ships 10/22 ones here any more?
Check Brownells. They have some in stock.

Gunmagwarehouse too, but looks like most out of stock.

Can confirm both will ship to Hawaii.  You can also check Lanbo’s Armory as they will ship but looks like most are out of stock right now.

If you have family or friends in a free state in the lower 48, get it shipped to them and then have them send it to you.

I've done that for years.
I thought sharing such advice would get you banned.
Rock on!

Brownells has a sale on 5.56 M2 PMags and 7.62 M3 PMags. Only in packs of 10 though is the sale valid. Just bought a bunch and can confirm they are still shipping to Hawaii.

We SHOULD still be able to obtain 30rd rifle magazines if the ban goes through. They will just need to have a magazine block installed and not "readily removable."

There's website out there that sell standard capacity magazine bodies with the blocks currently installed. The downside is the price is roughly 1.5x to 2x more than what it would be factory.

Thanks. Gunmagwarehouse has the Bulgarian Ak mags for a good price as well as a deal on 10 packs of M2/M3 promags and Okay Surefeeds. Shipping is around $19 for 20 mags, but if you want more than that it is best to break up into multiple orders. Per usual we do not get the free shipping discount here, though.

Very interesting.  Please tell me more.

I would just get 10 rd AR mags instead of a blocked 30.  I keep my AR loaded with a 20 rd mag because I like the compactness of it and it fits in the zippered case easier.  However, all the mags I have to reload it are 30 rds.

Thread sounds like the other buying a gun, ammo, TP, dried food etc ones.
 If your rushing to do it now cuz $hit hit the fan, you weren't prepared in the first place.  ::)

In this case it was probably worth waiting until we knew the status of the grandfathering.

And you sound like an a$$ being an a$$ just to be an a$$. If you don't have anything to offer, any ideas or product sources, then kindly go to another thread.

 Maybe you can make one about bitching about a flag that gets taken down in kailua.

Insults ?  :wacko:
My, my, my, touchy aren't we.  :grrr:

    My comment was merely an observation how this thread resembled the others I mentioned.
Maybe seeing how you've only been here 3 months, you have not read the posts I am referring to.
Not the best way to start. :-\

I love prep shaming just as much as the next guy but in this case it actually worked out. Next gen equipment is available and on sale.

A buddy ordered some mags and would've been about $100, so I had him add some mags for me.   ;D

Mines too was an observation of how self-serving such comments are.  If there are previous posts similar posts, of what use is repeating them? (See the previous sentence about it being self-serving). 

Something tells me you don't give a crap about leaving good impressions either, so don't put that on my doorstep.

There's also decently prepared folks who want to supplement.  There's also the friends who know you're a gun guy, prepper, etc and ask if you "have extra".  While that's not my priority, helping out friends in need is something I consider.

Don't mind Rocky.  He may come off as a grumpy a$$, but he's a cool guy.  If you search back on some history, he shares opportunity for knowledge (such as medical and disaster prep courses) and more. 

He may seem like 100 grit on the surface, but there's more below that abrasive exterior.   :rofl:
