I think I got to the Midway site within 1 minute of getting the email...Sold out. I thought for sure I'd get a couple this time.

I gotta be close, assuming that they are slow in sending out those announcement emails... I cannot imagination they would bother if they only got a dozen or so mags... Is it possible they are trickling in like that at a place like Midway?? They MUST get at least a case at a time.....

That email from Midway is worthless on Glock mags and most cheap 10mm ammo. I just happened to be on the site the other night. Prvi 10mm shows up for 20.99 limit 10. I order 10 boxes and in 5 minutes they were sold out. You have dealers buying from anywhere they can get ammo for their stores and customers and then jacking the price. Good business but makes it tough to get items. And I am not being disrespectful if you are a dealer. You got to do what you got to do.I search everyday so I know what is where and right now 10mm ammo is hard to find under 80 cents per round and Glock mags are there but you just have to get lucky and most dealers are charging 39.99 and some much higher. Imagine if this bill even gets close to passing. 39.99 will look like a bargin and ammo well seems the 10mm is always out there,its high but available.I guess that is an advantage of loving a caliber everybody else does not like.And I like the heck out of all of mine.

Getting frustrating. Just got another product arrival notification. Got on the Midway site and found them in-stock. Selected 2 of them since the limit was set at 2. Went through all the steps up to final confirmation and then got a message that said the limit is 1 and that I had to change quantities. Changed the quantity to 1 and went through the checkout again. At the point of confirming the order, a message stated that my order could not be completed...sold out. I guess I have to type faster next time.

With what Targetsportsusa charges for shipping, I think I'll keep playing this little game with Midway a little longer. Ouch!

Guys I just need to tell you about this order... I decided to go home for a early dinner with my wife, because I have allot to finish tonight before I am done...

There is a box on the stoop... Its very light and from Target Sports. Taking Driftwood's comment in check. (I agree shipping is a bit hi) My wife has always told me I have more money than patience and it is true... My magazines are in my hand!! This is faster even than Midway when they are not busy!! I ordered these on the 12 today is the 14th and everything is complete... We ALL know how busy retailers are in our industry!!

I have to say and will be emailing this company later to thank them as well. This company just earned my loyalty!!

The only thing I can say is both my 10mm pistols use the same mags, and I have a LOT of them already, since 10mm is one of my favorites.

Driftwood · March 14 2013 02:50:11 PM MDT

That is fast service! Congrats!

Shipping for 2 mags to TN is 16.00. Thats a bit much.Adds 8.00 to cost of mag. I like the idea of fast shipping but I can find them for the same price with no limit and true shipping.Glad you got them but if they are going to charge that much to ship the limit should at least be 5. Just an opinion.
