Hey guys, this is my first post but Ive been lurking for awhile. I figured Id introduce myself here because the 15-22 is the only S&W I currently own. So, HI!
Now my issue. I ordered some 25 round mags well over a month ago, at the time they did'nt say they were on back order but as soon as I recieved my order confirmation that's when it said they were. It said approximate arrival date would be the 25th (of April), well on the 25th I get an email stating they're still not available and the approximate arrival date is the 25th (of May). I emailed them (frustrated as you can imagine) and asked what's going to happen on the 25th of May I'll get another email saying the 25th of June? They said they're very sorry, we take this serious, blah, blah, f'n blah. So Ive started looking EVERYWHERE for 25 round mags and no one seems to have ANY in stock! Where are they all? S&W continues to sell 15-22's with one included with each gun so they're being made, why are they not getting out to the public? I have ONE 25 round mag to fire off, then I sit and reload while my wife continues to plug away at our targets with her 5 25 round mags for her Ruger 10/22. Its annoying as hell because I dont want 10 round mags (that does'nt seem like much of a solution) and 25 round mags are perfectly legal here. So does anyone know what's up?
On a similar note, these 10 round long mags, can they easily be converted (back?) to a 25 round mag?
1 gun shop near me had them for $23 each,called 4 others and was told didn't have any and was waiting for them to come in....ordered 3 from 44 mag.com on thursday and received an email friday that they were shipped..even with the $5 shipping charge they were cheaper then the local shops....can't wait till they get here.. : )
Ive tried EVERY local shop, plus the online biggies, Midway, Cabelas, Brownells, Bass Pro, etc, etc. I never heard of this 44mag place until I registered here, if they were on back order there they would say that somewhere on the screen, right? Its not one of those stores where you assume all is cool, then you get an invoice that says they're on B.O. is it? If they have have them, I am forever indebt to you guys I have been dying to start shooting the hell out of my gun like it was made to do!
edit, well nevermind I just saw the 100+ available!
Well I just placed my order for an additional 4 mags which will round out my gun carrier nicely. Including the mag I have, 125 rounds down range before reloading sounds SOOOOO much better then just 25. Now I can not only keep up with my wife I can beat her too...well not beat her...just out gun her. Thanks to all that actually gave an answer as to where I could order my needed mags, it was VERY much appreciated.
Lol your such a dick stav! I want that many mags! Theres that beer again! Dam kegerator just kicked my last pitcher....*** lol.
See and I thought I said that when I said, "Thanks to all that actually gave an answer as to where I could order my needed mags..." lol, but Im new so I played nice. You never know how people take things, or how they look upon noobies saying it.
I just ordered 2 from 44 mag today. About the blue 10 round mags yes you can take a long screw driver and a hammer and knock out the limit pin. You will have to remove the spring to do so. I just did it to my 10 round mag last night. It only took about 3 firm hits and it bends and falls out the mag.
I am jealous! Just got my rifle and you are right one magazine will not cut it. Got them from my LGS for $22 a piece bought all 4 that they had but I am going to need more that is for sure.
Haha that was awesome, Stavman. I've owned my rifle since Nov. 2011 and I haven't been able to shoot faster than controlled doubles(because of range rules). I need to at least dump a mag sometime soon The one & only time I've been on BLM land, I forgot all of my 15-22 magazines!
I may be changing my vote when it comes to where I buy my mags.
Iv been on the MidWay bandwaggon for a while now. 44mag has had then in stock for the past two months while MidWay want me to "back order' them
"Back order" = Order now while the item is "out of stock"
Oh BTW, those "Discount Codes" that people love so much and originally brought us your business.... Yeah, you cant use those on "Back order" items
44MAG is getting my order this time. Im sick of waiting!
Thanks to this site I found 44mag.com as well. Ordered four 25rnd mags yesterday morning and got an email they had shipped an hour later. $5 shipping from OR to MN and they will be here Monday! I searched the Internet and local shops high and low and NO ONE else seems to have these mags...only empty promises of getting more "next week". I spent far more time sourcing these out then it is taking me toget them shipped to my door.

I ordered two from them April 30th and have not gotten them yet. I’m in SC so I will give them a few days. Either way still a pretty good place considering the actually have them in stock.

Call them. That isn't normal. Washington State to Connecticut - three days, including the day ordered - three times.

Thats not right. Did you get an Email the day after you placed your order? An Email saying Thanks, we took you money & now we are sending you your product.
You should also get a USPS delevery comfirm number, in your Email. Ist not a true tracking number but will tell you when/if it reaches its destination.

Yeah I got the email, but no tracking number. Hmm I hope everything is ok. I'll give them a call monday and see whats going on. No bigge. I know they are a good company so not to worried about it. Thanks for the responce guys
Mine arrived today as promised. Mr2r6...I would seek resolution in your situation. It has been far too long.
Interestingly...they came unpackaged in a USPS shipping envelope. They look new just found it weird they were not in manufacture packaging. But still...I got 'em!

I wrote them over the weekend and got a response on Sunday. Somehow they put the order on hold. He was very sorry upgraded shipping and I took advantage of the delay and upgraded shipping and ordered another magazine.
So all in all things happen 44 mag is making good on the deal. I will order from them agian.

They do not come in manuf package.... just FYI... they buy in BULK thus I assume the cheaper Pricing

That is the normal packaging for just a few. I ordered a dozen and they came in a flat-rate box. FWIW, there is no "factory packaging".
Thanks all...the price and service were great so I don't really care about the packaging.
Ohh...forgot to mention...they shipped with two really cool 44mag.com stickers. I love product stickers! It's just one of those little things in life, I guess ;-)
Not that it would really matter, but I wonder why no one has made any 30 round magazines for the 15-22. I mean come on an extra 5 rounds is gonna make all the differance in the world. JK but I would buy one. I would like a little extra without going to a drum style.
Maybe sold direct from S&W to an individual, but dealers get them in bulk without any packaging. Why package, just more trash for a landfill.
when i purchased from cabelas, and park city tactical they were in that package hanging on a hook. everywhere else they seemed to be loose, and behind the counter (and $1-2 cheaper). I'm betting there's a slight cost to the dealer for the packaging.

Packaging always costs - in some cases as much as 15 percent of the retail price.
An even trickier product to find is the 10/25. Anyone have a line on them? I use 44mag all the time but they don't seem to stock these very often. (10's are no problem finding online but they look silly IMO).

Where are all the 25 round mags???
