I believe the last 20 rounder I saw in my area for sale was close to $100-

Mr. wood, you are one lucky hound dog. Good snag.

I have some 20 rounders that came with my Marlin Camp9 carbine. I usually buy used S&W mags on Ebay for target practice. Going rate today is 50-60 dollars.....they used to be plentiful & cheap!

The last Model 39 mag I bought cost me about twice what you paid in total for your two. Outstanding buy!

Very common where I work. Someone trades in a gun with 5 mags. We throw 4 in a box, & sell the gun with 1 mag. We then sell those free mags to customers on the cheap as a good will gesture. And our customers remember this next time they need a gun. GARY

SCORE! The last magazine I found in the misc. bucket that I wanted to buy at a local LGS/pawn shot was for my Bersa Thunder and they wanted $24.95 + tax for it and wouldn't budge on the price.

I have never understood that mentality. One of the questions I ask when buying a gun is how many magazines they have for it. I see the point from the sellers view but I have walked away from the only one magazine gun several times, especially when I know the factory supplied two.
