    I can not wait for the chantilly show! Supposed to be 1200 tables. VA owes me a good show after the last one I went to.... I got jacked at the Fredericksburg one that just passed. Two 30rd m1 carbine mags that turned out to be JUNK. And two 30rd SKS mags that nosedived and wouldn't load 30. Then a 75$ holographic site which has turned out to be a PoS....

    Though VA shows make me green with envy...seeing all those lucky Virginians cash and carrying "assault rifles". I'm moving there one day I swear...:envy:

    Were The M1 carbine mags new and made in Korea? Better to buy the old beat up looking original ones. KEEPSHOOTING advertises they have quality aftermarket ones. Check out their website. They are in the industrial partner section.

    I have been looking forward to going back to the Chantilly show since I went to my first one back in April. Hopefully I will have better luck finding circle 10 mags this time.

    I've been looking forward to it too (though my wallet hasn't). It seems like it's been a while since the last one. For a while during the winter and spring, it seemed like they were every 6-10 weeks.

    I'm good on 15's I need 30's. I'm not gonna be a sucker this time either. I'm not buying any mags unless they let me load them. Gonna have to carry 30 of each caliber in my pockets lol.

    They made 30 round USGI.
    Have you tried to see what is wrong with the mags you bought?

    Good luck

    Sorry for going off topic.
    Chris start another thread about your mag issue.

    I don't think so, but last time here was a dealer from MD who would do the MD regulated transfer for $60. Obviously overpriced, but he does have a corner on the market, and it may be worth it if you find some fantastic deal. I think the shop is in Elkton though, so it may be a long drive to go pick it up.
