Surplus AK-74 5.45x39 45rd Magazine


Get'em while they're hot. I don't have a 74 and I bought some last night when they were at 39.99. Still a good deal. Thought I'd share.

 

[vitamink]

Excellent find. Just bought some

Folks if you don't know how much these cost... Here's some for 189.00 and that's not uncommon.

I'd buy more but I'm on vacation. Thanks for the link. I would have kicked myself if I missed out.

Bumping the second most awesome deal this year. You'll want to buy these.

What was the first most awesome deal of the year?

 

[vitamink]

Vepr 12's.

Everyone was expecting them to be over 2 grand converted instead they were 999.

These russian mags have been hovering in the 150 and up range used (189 above)...to buy them at 39.99 is insane. You can find them cheaper from time to time, just no where near this cheap. Gunbroker just sold a couple for $100.00 each. I talked to an AIM rep and they said they mislabeled the price at 39.99. It was originally supposed to be 49.99 they wanted to give folks a deal, just not that big of one. 50 bones is still incredible...hell 70 is good.

Edit:
Some other options
128 + shipping for 1 http://aa-ok.com/ak74-5-45-bakelite-mag-45-rd-russian.html

This is a smokin hot deal. I paid $75 for one last fall.

 

[vitamink]

and $75 would have been a smokin hot deal... if it weren't for this deal.

Weren't these originally made for the RPK-74?

Price on AIM's website has been corrected to $49.99; for another $5.00 you can get the 45rd RPK-74 black waffle mags from K-VAR.

 

[vitamink]

In my opinion the waffle mags are the best mags made. You just can't beat a mag that is on sale for 1/3 it's usual price. Though i rarely use bakelites, due mostly to their rarity and price, they sure do sexy up a gun!

 

[davedolli]

Got mine today, that was sure fast.

[vitamink]

Your honor i give you exhibit A of a sexy gun! No further questions, the prosecution rests!

Check the inside of your mag for the 10 round limiting wire. Most, if not all of these so far have this wire inside and you will have to remove it to load it to capacity.

 

[davedolli]

Vitamink, I think that one is my favorite AK, and that mag does make it look pretty sexy.

Clay, It had the wire but its gone, thanks.
