    Dang, one of the dealers at the last show gave me a $15 price on mags, and I only picked up a couple. Oh, well, I reckon I have about ten now. I want 40 or 50, though.

    That may be changing over the next couple days...

    Why I posted...
    Edited to add: Where $14?

    Botach has them.............if anybody is crazy enough to trust them with an order. Price was ~$14 a couple of weeks ago.

    In fairness, apparently a lot of folks on GT have recently bought mags from them with no problem. Their track record for the past five years suggests otherwise.

    I just ordered a dozen from Brownell's.

    Botach is sold out & they are taking backorder. They informed me that they would honor the current price when the backorders were filled.

    $25 for the 12rd G26 mags seems harsh, wish I knew a cheaper place.

    I don't like Botach, they have -terrible- customer service from my experience. ALWAYS check their stock before you order from them.

    Well as of right now they bumped the prices to $19.95.

    Luckily I got in an order a couple nights ago at $13.80. . . but they simply took off 5 mags from my order (G31 mags). No backorder, just shipped me the other stuff and said my order was completed. :mad:

    But at least I got some at that price.

    Got in 42 Glock mags from Bo Tac today...

    I've ordered 44, I called them and they told me the 2 that I ordered were backordered 3-4 months and so they didn't charge me for them. I asked if I still had them on order... they said no.
    (Just extras, no big deal)

    That's the closest I've come to a problem with them and I've ordered from them over a dozen times.

    I noticed the 9mm and 10mm mags had a metal insert.
    The 40 mags didn't have it...

    This a new Generation?
    (They ARE glock brand.)

    After shipping $15.38 each.

    The metal insert on the front makes them serviceable in any future ambidextrous models that they could release in the future, like the G21sf. The first ones to get it were the new 21sf mags, and I've seen them on the new 17 and 19 mags also.

    I also just got some G22 mags from botach and they didn't have the metal insert. I'm guessing they just haven't produced any yet or have no plans for an ambi .40 (but I doubt that). Also new G18 mags don't have it, either.

    If you order new magazines from any major outlet, they should have the metal insert on the front unless they just have a lot of old stock sitting around.

    Yeah I've got it. . . I sent them another couple emails, but really I don't think it's worth the time.

    I won't order from them in the future unless their prices are just unbeatable. The only good thing about botach is the price, and now they don't have that.
