Midway has 15-22 mags for $16 right now

I did not know they made a 10 round long. Good to know, thanks. I thought maybe they just used the picture from the 25 mag.
ALL rifles made for sale in states that have a mag size limit (10 rounds) came with mags that were full (25 round) size but 'fixed' with a pin molded into them limiting them to only 10 rounds.
They are easy to see as they use a blue follower instead of the orange one in the 25 round version.
Not sure why they do it, orange would stand out better I guess, but they use the same orange follower in the shorter 10 rounders in place of the blue one.
 
I ordered a short mag from S&W once. Instead of indicating on their web site they were not in stock they just accepted the order. A week or so later I get a post card in the mail saying they had none to sell. That was enough for me. As far as I'm concerned the S&W web site operates on par with Botach. YMMV.

You can avoid that issue by calling in the order. Not quite as convenient but you'll know right away if they are in stock or not. That's what I did to get my FDE mags.

Oddly enough the 2 25's I order from Botach got here 3 days later, while the 2 10s from S&W took 8 days just to ship and still are not here 12 days after ordering.

hehe yeah, I remember that thread :D That's when they first came out, though. I trust that they have them in stock but I'll make sure to shoot them an email before hand. The dollars I'd save are worth buying from S&W for me.
 
what does smith charge for shipping 1 or 2 mags

To Chattanooga they charge $6.50 to mail one 10rd short mag and they charged me sales tax too IIRC.

While I have really enjoyed the 1522 I don't like to do web purchases or talk to their CS department regarding the 1522.

Offering my apologies to Botach (you out there lurking, Dan?) for comparing your operation to that of S&W web sales.
 
I also bought 5 of the 10 round long mags from midway last week. They were $15.99 each and after shipping + my $.94 donation to the NRA my total was $89.00 flat. I would have bought the shorties from them however they were out of stock.

Yesterday I bought 5 of the shorties from ineedmoregear.com and after shipping my total was $88.89 with no option to donate to the NRA. So midway was cheaper by $1 :) .

Anyway now I will have eleven 10 round mags and I am very happy because I will not have to stop shooting to reload but every 100+ rounds. :D

Midway has very good service as I am sure most of you know. I was very happy with them.
 
I picked up 3x 25-rounders from Midway. Can't wait for them to get here. Having one mag is lame!
 
I'd love to have one 25 round magazine hahah
 
These have been back in stock for about six days now on Midway, get em while they're hot and before they run out! :D

I sent Midway an email asking if they would stock the short 10 round magazines in the future. The existence of this magazine was not on the radar of either customer service rep that replied, but they do have the SKU now and hopefully their purchasing team will get them stocked. These are so expensive merely because of availability, if a big store like Midway starts carrying them prices will go down.

they have the giant 10 rounders, pointless unless you live in cali.

I'm in CA, and the giant 10 rounders are still pointless. Mainly because the spring is so stiff and they're very hard to load all 10 rounds, and because there's no loading assist tab on the follower to help you pull it down when loading (not unless you stick a paperclip or something through the follower to help pull it down).

I run 25rd mags in CA with Tacticool22 mag blocks (or blocks removed when I'm in TX). Loading 10 rounds is so much easier & faster than using the giant 10rd mag.
