People are still buying firearms and want to get mags compatible with new purchases. Others are new to the shooting world and haven't tracked news as closely as most of us here do. Some just met minimum age requirements to start buying. Still others just haven't had the funds available to buy as much as they wanted.
There are always new shooters. People who by new guns and need a new stockpile of mags. People for whom this hobby is only a distant side issue, who are not involved in politics and who have little time or inclination to keep up with all the world's happenings. Not everyone is politically active or hobby driven, nor should they be. Some people need to spend their time growing a small business, raising a family or being otherwise productive. Not everyone can know everything about everything. There are a ton of important issues out there, not just guns, not all related to politics, not all even important to you or me.
I agree with RustyNail as anyone In or traveling to Washington State should abide by Washington State Law. This forum is for the law abiding and that is why I am here willing to help our community.
Are you sure? I bought mags from them earlier this year.
I bought a bunch of 450 Bushmaster mags from them today. Prominent banner on the top of the page, "Joe Bob Outfitters is no longer shipping high capacity magazines to Oregon." A 20 rounder AR15 mag becomes a 7 round 450 Bush mag. Swap the follower and you have a little less than standard capacity 223 magazine.
Wow. IIRC, mine were AK mags, or maybe they were Walther PDP mags.....I would have to go back and look. Either way, very disappointing.
They're good to go.Yeah I should've bought mags months ago for a gun I just got yesterday... guess I'm a moron.
Anyway...
Just ordered glock 17 mags from recoil gunworks. Never ordered from them before but seems like decent reviews.
Academy already stopped shipping ammo to WA.
10 pack pmag Glock 17 17rd @ Brownells $122+ship. If you wish to have range mags/spares. Not Glock, but decent.Yeah I should've bought mags months ago for a gun I just got yesterday... guess I'm a moron.

Yep I'll not be back.
Wait, so you'll talk to anti-gunners that voted in the law, but you won't shop from manufacturers that follow the law that your new friends passed?
In reality, I can't say I would absolutely boycott these companies. Especially the smaller companies. They know what nut jobs the dims are. It's totally ridiculous for the dims to come after a company that sold a 30 rnd mag to a nut-job that goes and uses it to shoot people. But you know what crazy bustards they are? And how the courts have become in some states? They can't take the chance that a court would rule against them and force them into bankruptcy. It's a G-D shame that that is what our country is coming to.
They weren't following the law. They were just making smit up. I was looking at a 1911 with 8 round magazines. They said they wouldn't sell it to me because of the upcomeing law restricting more than 10 round magazines. When I tried to explain that 8 was less than 10 they convinced me join the boycott.Wait, so you'll talk to anti-gunners that voted in the law, but you won't shop from manufacturers that follow the law that your new friends passed?
It'd be nice if these multi-million dollar companies would stand up, just a little bit, and support those that pay their wages.
Great post. Thanks for the information that helps us all get to be knowledgeable of our surroundings.
