the feeling the PMAG craze is slowing.
If by slowing...you mean all distributors are cancelling their $10 orders and replacing them with new $20 orders, then yes it is slowing.
Demand is still stupid absurd. Distributors realized that there was more money to be had by cancelling all the $10 orders and fricking people. Well, here we are getting fricked and still trying to buy them....The only thing that may remotely get banned in legislation is hi-cap mags...so take the risk if you want, I remember the Clinton Era Ban. It Sucked.

Yeah some of the distributors suck, but mags that were selling on Gunbroker for $40-50 recently are nowhere near that level now. I saw one auction today with a $20 / mag price with no bids and only a few hours to go. At some point the market becomes saturated.

What time will these places stop releasing stuff? Or do I need to check this shite all night too?

Generally they slow down a lot over the weekend. PK will probably get fired up again around 4 or 5am monday morning.
Over the weekend you can check your area stores again

Tots, you have any FFL guys out there who may have stripped lowers? I'll be heading that was tonight.

Arms Merchant is the only place I know of in the Mandeville area and they are usually very expensive.

Got you.
I'm already getting pretty antsy about getting a stripped lower. A day and a half of refreshing is pretty annoying.

Yea, it was like that with Ammo. Just a waiting game until the right deal comes along

I think Botach is the alleged culprit there

That's shitty, real shitty. Almost on the level of CTD.

They had some PMag's available earlier for $20 each and some people got a shipping and still haven't received their shipping notice from 6 weeks ago when they ordered for $10 each. Although there was a debate whether the one's today were Gen 2 or Gen 3.

I'm hoping to hear from DSGarms soon

If I'm building a dedicated .22 AR I wouldn't think twice about a polymer, but .223/5.56 or larger I wouldn't do it. Just my opinion. Google polymer AR lower and find some reviews. I think there may be some Youtube vids for them also.

I was told to avoid it.
I'm starting to consider it though. Probably isn't any different.

After I secure a lower, then I'll start asking some questions about uppers. I know nothing really
Posted on 2/1/13 at 7:05 pm to TigerTatorTots
TTT, I was always told to avoid poly lowers unless It was for a 22LR upper.
Posted on 2/1/13 at 7:09 pm to Uncle JackD
Hmmmmm
I sold my Mossberg .22 tactical. I may want to look into building a tactical .22 rather than AR since I already have my AK and don't feel like dealing with .223 ammo
So building a .22LR AR is basically the same as regular AR? Stripper lower, lower parts kit, then .22 complete upper?
