A local gun store has them but is charging an outrageous amount for them....and that has nothing to do with Magpul controlling the pricing.
You're correct about that. However Magpul in the past has been known to put the squeeze on their distributors for discounting magazine pricing. If you don't think Magpul won't force distributors to enforce pricing amongst their dealer networks you're wrong. If dealer networks don't comply they don't get mags, it's that easy. Magpul has that kind of marketing power.
Don't you find it kinda funny that nobody has P-Mags in stock anywhere? None of the distributors are listing any available for sale. Magpul is remaining strangely silent right now. There are people in Colorado cranking out thousands of P-mags right now.
Here's my prediction..... Magpul, and it's distributors are gonna flood the market all at once. There will be quantity limits in place to discourage hoarding, and individuals purchasing hundreds of magazines at once. It also wouldn't surprise me if there isn't also a pricing increase that goes along with it, but it wont be anywhere near record pricing that's been paid during the panic buying.
