Best place to buy magazines?

[Dante1983]

As the title says, where the best place to buy magazines? Any tips, best places to look? Any brands to stay away from? I’ve got a shield plus, was always a revolver guy. Looking for advice. Thanks!

The issue you are running into is your choice of pistol. Maybe there are tons of extras of those mags around at stores, but they will never be like Glock mags. Not ragging on your pistol, just saying that is a fact.

I've bought some stuff from these folks. A little warning that it took them a while and needed prodding around a busy time....

I just received a couple of Mecgar magazines for my CZ at a very good price with fast shipping from themagshak.com.
They have listings for the shield at about $35

There probably isn't one best place to shop for mags, but I do check Greg Cote when looking.

You can use the gun.deals or wiliarms.com sites to find the best prices.

Here is a site I found on Williams:

Smith & Wesson OEM Replacement S&W M&P Shield Plus 9mm Luger 13rd Black 3014411

I’ve never heard of this outfit. Prices on the mags I checked seemed pretty good.

I’ve bought from him/them 4-5 times. seems good to go.

They are good to go and he's quick to respond to email questions, etc. Ships fast. Just won't have every possible mag out there.

As for brands I steer clear of pro mag and ets (I know guys who don’t have problems with ets but I’ve had problems!)

I prefer factory mags, mec gar or act brands
In fact mec gar makes ruger, sig sauer cz and others factory mags! (Since cz bought Colt, I’ll assume colts are made by mec gar)

I haven’t bought from Greg cote yet but I’ve heard good things and their prices look great! I have bought from gun mag warehouse the prices were good and the shipping was fast (might be because the warehouse is in ft Wayne).

I need to get off my butt and find some cz kadet mags before they dry up!

Ditto....I always start here.

Grab-a-gun, GunMagWarehouse and PSA often have good prices and often don't....

....after that it is just a google-fest.

 

[Patched]

Can't go wrong with Greg Cote.

However, I usually search around to see if anyone has a sale going on. Over the years, I have sourced my mags from many different vendors. Check for Black Friday sales.

 

[Dog1]

Greg Cote and Top Gun Supply are my usual 2 sources for mags when I'm looking

 

[WebSnyper]

Greg Cote.
Osage County Guns (mostly for Sig)
Lanbosarmory

And many others.

Back in the day Botach used to be my go to for Glock mags, along with a few other places.

 

[DadSmith]

Recoil Gunworks
Greg Cote
Wilson Combat
Dawson Precision
Lanbo's Armory
Aim Surplus
Midway USA

I’m more of a digital guy, but I would assume Barnes and Nobles still has a decent magazine rack.

Try local.. one of our local gun shops has a box of used mags, I've had a little luck finding mags for some of my guns there, baring that Grab a Gun, Classic Firearms.....you know, the usual suspects...
