GEez ... Alright what the hell is up with Magazine prices! I like to keep at least 3 mags for each of my handguns. I know some of you guys keep much more. so start a search for an extra mag for my latest acquisition, a CZ p07 in 9mm, and come to find they are some $50. $50
That is pretty close to 10% the cost of the gun for a piece of folded steel with a spring in it. Yea yea.. I know without a quality mag a semi auto may as well be a paperweight but .... DAYUM.
OK .. rant off and off to find a damn mag! Might have to ask the wife for one for Christmas. Between this one and the ones for my H&K's .. I could have gotten another 1000 primers and had room for bullets.
I know full well the cost of extra magazines before I even buy the gun. If the price of the mag is horrible, I don't need the gun, or, I find the cost acceptable. Pretty simple.

I kinda knew what the mag prices would be going in but really liked the guns. Still can suck though!!
Might investigate EAA Witness mags. Same same base gun, just different mothers. After market mags can be a pain or a hidden jewel. Anything by Metalform or MecGar is good to go. HTHs
Was looking at a Canik but put it off due the price and lack of availability for OEM mags. Then they offered a 3-free mags rebate with new purchase. Sucker that I am I bought one!
“ Just bitchin to b**** ”
No, yer not “bitchin”, yer whining which is far less manly than bitching. You didn’t conduct any research on your purchase before you bought it and that’s on you.
Fr’instance a buddy of mine found a “Pre B” CZ-75 for a good price and asked for my advice, “Don’t buy it unless the pistol comes with a bucket of original mags”.
“How come?” he asked, “Cuz’ Pre B mags are scarce and like $200.00 a pop.” And he didn’t buy it.
When you purchase a new car do you find out the gas mileage before you have to fill up the first tank?
And what the hell are you doing buying a NON-AMERICAN firearm in the first place!?

Too bad your buddy didn’t talk to me. Would have told him how 3 minutes with a small file will open up the magwell so it accepts 75B mags.

When it comes to cars, I do the same as guns. If I like it or want it, I buy it. I will leave this Earth whether it be Heaven or Hell with my carbon footprint trailing.
When did you become the firearm purchasing monitor?
Going through this with a Stoeger 9C. It only came with 1 mag. I saw a YouTube Video about a 226 mg fitting the Stoeger 9C with a small modification. I bought a 226 and did the mod. Fits like sht. Just need to try it and see if it falls out.
