I find it funny that people will pay more for a 10rd short mag than they will for a 25rd mag.
Didn't anyone learn anything from the Pmag scare?

Wow! I figured that people that spend that much on a mag are just gun newbies and didn't know where else to look. $70 for 1 mag.
I sold a short mag on ebay for 75$ I almost passed out when I seen that!
I will admit I am lost as to what you mean by your post?
And for an update. My mags didn't get shipped yet. No email, nothing from them yet. Maybe they forgot about me

If you're on Midway's E-mail list and they have your birthday listed you'll get a "personal" greeting from Larry Potterfield. It's about as meaningful as a promise from Obama.

Man, the tower on these things sure makes them look short! Over all, they are the same as .223 twenty round mags, but the optical illusion really struck me when I took them out of the box...

Mine are suppose to arrive today. Has anyone tried to do a second back order on these? I'm tempted to grab 2 more since they are hard to find.

When I ordered a magazine for a different gun last week I asked the order taker to back order 2 more of the 10 rounders for me, no problem. He said they probably wouldn't ship until early/mid December. I also asked him to hold the order until ALL the magazines could ship together to save shipping and this also wasn't a problem.

That normally IS a problem and one of the complaints some folks have with Midway. I'm surprised that the CS rep agreed to hold your order.
It's all coming to me now. I think the reason why my 2 mags haven't shipped is because I have a backorder on some ammo. I bet they are holding the mags until the ammo comes in.
On there website they have a new policy to hold all back orders for up to 90 days and try and ship everything all together. After 90 days they will ship what they have in stock from your back orders to you. Then when anything else comes in I guess they ship it to you. Who knows...

There's at least two reasons people want 10-round short magazines, even though more expensive than 25 round ones:
1 - They WANT the short magazines! No other excuse is really necessary.
2 - They live in one of the communist controlled states that have outlawed possession of 25-round magazines.

3 - Shorter mag gives a nice low profile look to the gun.

4 - They work much better off a bench or prone.

My eleven AR's have 20 round P mags, my 15-22's have ten round short, my dedicated DPMS .22 uses 15 round, I have lots of higher capacity mags for them that sit in range bags...just my preference as I do not see the "red hoard coming over the hill" (you need to have experienced the seventies and eighties to understand) and shorts are more convenient. If the commie states found out someone liked the shorts they would probably legislate for higher capacity

I feel no need to see how fast I can burn thru 25 rds and don't need the 25 rd long magazine "wannabe fashion statement". I got a 15-22 for Steel Challenge, Ruger Rimfire Challenge etc and a 25 rd magazine just slows transitions. The short 10s are just right. If I start shooting matches where the COF requires more rds I will use a 25 but they're pointless and inconvenient when not necessary.

Has anyone ever seen a FDE short mag?

No, I don't believe anyone has made shorts in FDE. Paint is you only option.

We can always make them FDE.
