Bulgarian Ak74 mags online?

[chris12138]

Hey guys, got a new Saiga in 5.45, figurin on trying its luck with a few Bulgarian surplus AK74 mags. I've been looking around and can't find any good deals on them in the $9-$15 range. Any leads for me? I would just go for the Tapcos or Promags but from what i've gathered the Bulgarians function the best without a bullet guide. Thanks!! Wish the Chantilly show was comin up...

Edit: jeeze the supply has dried up....The only economical option may be to just install the bullet guide lol.

I have a friend that bought some last year from JG Sales.... Don't remember what he paid for them

Seems to be the way with everything these days. Hell, I'm still amazed the steel '47 mags still go for $10 online. And it's only going to get worse

You won't find them that cheap right now unless you are lucky. Rguns has unissued ones for $25, the various online forums have them pop up daily in the classifieds but they are gone immediately if they are under $25.

You should put a guide in regardless, but the Bulgarians are the gold standard for poly mags and they are worth paying a bit more for one vs a US made all-plastic copy.

They're hella expensive now. Around November 2010 I got 4 for $39. Now it's 4 for $90-ish. :/

But everyone is right, all my usual sources are dry. RobertRTG, Apex, Centerfire, CDNN; everyone is showing out of stock. I'm glad I bought all those surplus mags last year when I got the Tantal. If you decide to buy the cheaper American mags, I'd get the Tapcos. I have 10 Tapcos and 2 Promags (that I bought a long time ago), and the Tapcos are generally superior quality. The red ones actually resemble bakelite in coloring.

Edit: Gaaaa. Ignore the above link. Just noticed that there was a drop-down menu to select grade. That changes the price to $30 if you select very good. The $18 was for rough. F### that.

I just purchased 10 30 round AK47 mags from www.aimsurplus.com for 9.95 each. They looked to be brand new. Filled and cycled them with no problems. Just checked thier website but they don't have any AK74 mags now.
