I have been eyeing that vp9 for a while, and yes the price increase due to market conditions in understandable, but I cannot bring myself to make an offer due to the quantity of mags. 6 mags? that is insanity, why would anyone NEED 6 mags? Blows my mind, do they think they are going to single handedly defeat a facist nation? 6 mags hold way more than a box of ammo, and we (well those of us who are thinkers) know that a box of ammo is like a lifetime supply. And if you run out of ammo (off chance that may happen but lets cover it anyway) you can always go to the store, duh. So having 6 loaded mags is like inviting a terrorist into your home while playing naked in a briar patch, it just wont end well.
I was willing to offer $1500 and have the seller keep 2 of the 4 mags, figured that was fair. Once I saw 2 more mags I just had to step back. I'm not sure what the seller thinks, but the rest of us are questioning him pretty hard, now that we know he has 6 mags... Maybe he is just a hoarder, but he should realize how this looks to normal people. 6 mags, wow, thats like having an arsenal in your pants. How would you even carry 6 loaded mags. At 115 grams per bullet (I went with the lightest ammo, to be fair) a loaded mag is almost 4.5 lbs. 6 of those loaded mags (clips) is more than 25 lbs. And that is just 115 9mm, which as anyone who shoots 45acp will tell you is a pile of steaming poo. Go to the legit 158 9mm and you have some "stopping power" but you pay the weight penalty. 6 mags at 18rds per mag is 108 rounds (are we taking over the government, thats alot of ammo, more than 2 whole boxes, sheesh!) So 108 times 158 gives you 17064 grams , which is a huge number and way more than most people could count to in there whole life, even if they started early. Just to put that into perspective 17064 grams is almost 38 pounds. 38 pounds is the weight of 3 decent sized dogs, like a fat Pomeranian (so cute) or even 2 big dogs, like a few lean jack russels. Yeah, thats right, try carrying 2 dogs in your pants everyday. Not going to happen.
So my advise is to not look like a crazy person and just be cool and chill. Biden 24!
