That's why I went ahead and bought 6. I saw others at the same gun show (at New Year's) that they wanted $50+ and saw some rusted ones a couple of weeks later that they were asking $65. :cookoo:
I have paid a little too much ($25) for some 20 rd metal FAL mags, but that is about it. I think I have enough supplies to last for several months until either poop settles down or hits the fan. I will then have to pay either reasonable prices or decide that crazy prices are the new normal.

1) What model? (LAR-8 A4) 2) What dealer? (LGS) 3) When did you order? (March 8, 2012) 4) When did you receive it? (Jan 24, 2013) It sucks to have to be patient, but it is worth it in the end.

I can't vouch for the quality of these or if they are still in stock, but here are some metal metric 30rd FN FAL mags for $49.99. http://www.cdnninvestments.com/fn30memagdsa.html
Wow, these stories make me feel like I missed out on a fun childhood. <laughs> The worst I remember doing was having bottle rocket or roman candle fights at about 25 feet. I feel deprived. :(
I don't think it's that bad here in TX yet. But there are far too many foreigners moving to Austin to suit my taste. The transplants come here because the economic environment is good but then want to recreate the same entitlement state that they left because no one could find a job.
