Maybe that is true with Pmags but the last large quantity of mags I bought were German made SIG mags and Bulgarian AK mags.

Whatever the number is I am sure it is over the top. Kudos to Magpul for holding the line on prices and still cranking out good mags in volume.
If that conversation even took place that perfect number sounds more like the speaker meant it as ,“Man, those guys at Magpul have a million on backorder,” where “million” is just like “boat load”, or “a huge freaking amount.” The writer than used that literally.
Go Magpul! I love America. Vote with your wallet, vote early and vote often as the party machine would say.
Pilgrim, I think you may have hit the nail on the head.
FWIW, I talked to Brownells this morning about some Dec 19th,20th,21st and 22nd orders of mine. They said a few things.
*Beginning of Feb at the earliest.
*They have over 150,000 PMAGs on order from MagPul
*They have over 75,000 PMAGs on backorder as of today, and obviously have stopped taking backorders
*She seemed to imply that they were NOT receiving regular shipments in from MagPal - said they were supposed to receive a big shipment in Nov and didn’t and another couple of large ones in Dec and didn’t and nothing in Jan yet…
I think the damn dictator and his idiot partner are going to act before “beginning of January.” As in, any day now.
Remind me, the next class I take with you guys, to bring you a matching tutu.
I’m wondering if that’s because…oh I don’t know…every swinging Richard that has money in this country are buying everything up in existence.
I just hope MagPul is using all their machines to make mags instead of things like AFG’s and 870 parts…
We are shipping to the big B regularly. They’ll have to comment on delivery time, but we communicate our expected delivery schedule to them regularly, as we do with all our large customers. It just may not be trickling down to CSRs.
We are fully supporting all our resellers who are holding the line on price.
Different machines. All our magazine molds are running. More capacity is on the way. We may never recoup the expansion costs, but trying to meet customer expectations is worth the gamble.
I would love to know what Magpuls daily production capacity is for mags.
Awesome.
Did you guys completely discontinue the “gen 2” mags? If not you could dust off the molds, I would still buy them!
This is probably one of the best statements I’ve read during all this stupidity of buying.
If it doesn’t violate Magpul’s NDA, is it possible to say how many resellers you guys have dropped due to price gouging?
Statements like this lead me to believe you’ll have no trouble recouping your investment to increase capacity.
There are a lot of us who’ll remember things like this after all the dust has settled. You’ve got my money forever, for what it’s worth.
GEN 2s are still running. All of them.
The “Gen 2”, also known as the M-Rev has been reclassified as the MOE Mag and is still currently in production.
I don’t know what the actual number is but I made my humble contribution and am standing by to hit it again when my supplier gets restocked.
Hopefully this ban nonsense goes no place and that happens sooner rather than later.
Outstanding. Glad to be a patron.
There has been another shooting in CA this AM.
I hope Magpul is re-tooling to make 10rd P-mags.
LOL
This speaks volumes about you guys! Every PMAG shipped is another splinter in Fienswine’s side . . . 
I bought three of the Gen 3 PMAG’s before the madness started. I REALLY liked the changes over the Gen2 mags.
I back ordered some more from DSG at the same LE price a couple days after Christmas, hoping to see them sometime this summer.
UPS dropped them off to me yesterday.
Apparently MagPul is shipping and holding steady with their price to their dealers. DSG is also holding steady with their price.
I for one greatly appreciate the guys at MagPul doing their best to push out their product without changing the price or the quality.
I will remember those companies that stood up and Maintained their commitment to the shooting public. I will also remember those companies who chose to take advantage by price gouging.
