EDIT: This has changed to a Group Buy here by DeanC and Myself. Dean is going to order them and I'm going to herd cats.

Cost is is $10.29 for Blued or $11.49 for SS. Add $0.25 per mag for shipping charges to get them to DeanC . if you need it cross shipped to you, I'll do it for cost. you can use the USPS postage calculator to figure the cost if you like.

Out the door comes to $11.74 SS or $10.54 Blued per mag. Please PM me with your orders and I'll PM you my address for Checks.

Order by 04/15/07 with Payment arrangements to me by 04/21/07 and then mags ordered 04/22 and delivery ASAP after that.

<strike>One of my vendors is closing out on the Chip McCormick 8-rd. blued (w/ basepad) Shooting Star .45 ACP mags for the 1911. I was toying with getting some for myself. If anyone is interested theyre $11.25 ea. Sugg. Retail on these things is around $17~. Minimum order of four. I’ll be calling Monday to check on availability.</strike>

<strike>The guy is in business. He's offering them at a price that people without a C&R can't beat.

[EDIT] He's basically making ~$1 a mag profit and selling them for ~30% off what I've seen them for in stores. Depending on what he decides for shipping, it could be a great deal for those of us without a C&R. [/EDIT]

But, now that you mention it ... those are good prices ... </strike>wanna do a group buy? :-)

edited for clarity to reflect local group buy.

Don't know where you are on this, but I'd be interested in the stainless steel. 4 would do me well.

I am NOT interested in the blued mags initially offered.

I AM interested the stainless steel with bases for $11.49 ea. mentioned by DeanC if they're Chip McCormick mags plus shipping (if Dean's interested in doing the group buy).

Quantity would still be 4.

Hope I'm more clear this time around.

Not sure if Paul found someone to do it or not, but I'm willing if he's still willing to do the coordination.

THANKS DEAN! I'll herd the cats and get things rounded up / distributed.

Here's what we have so far:

Joel: 2 mags. do you want SS or blued? Payment already received
plblark: 4 mags. SS
lumbering buffalo: 4 SS
HammAR: 4 SS

let's call this group buy on 04/15/07 with Payment arrangements to me by 04/21/07 and then mags ordered 04/22 and delivery ASAP after that.

Please PM me your order with Mag group buy as the subject. Yes, even if you've spoken for them here :-). I'll PM you my address. Let's figure $0.25 per mag for shipping [EDIT]: The $0.25 shipping is to cover the shipping TO DeanC. if you need it cross shipped to you, I'll do it for cost. you can use the USPS postage calculator to figure the cost if you like. [/EDIT].

Sound Good?

Just a note: The $0.25 shipping is to cover the shipping TO DeanC. if you need it cross shipped to you, I'll do it for cost. you can use the USPS postage calculator to figure the cost if you like. Otherwise, we can probably do a meet and greet or a handoff somewhere.

I'm pretty flexible too. I work downtown MPLS and can meet anybody down here. I can even meet your car on the curb and do a hand-off so you don't have to park.

Sounds good, but with my luck lately, we would get busted during the exchange by a couple of undercover LEOS for an alleged drug buy....... :cry:
