I know, brother.

I still have about 8 of those.  I was issued them.  We just called them "water mags," for use in boat/swimming work.  The whole time I had them, I never had an issue with them.  I still run them through the guns from time to time.  <thumbsup>

about 6 months ago i went into a local GS and they had thermolds onsale for 2.99 I bought all they had 8 in all I have run them all and no issues at all.....

Couple times I met up with Jon at the Sportmans Warehouse, near him.  They had racks and racks of Thermolds, 20s and 30s, just hanging there.  I think the 20s were $4.99 and the 30s were $6.99.  I kept saying I'd pick some up the next trip, just because the price was down so far. 

Now, I wish I'd picked them up every trip I made up there.  :(

Perhaps not ironically, those Thermolds were sitting in boxes after the crazyness started, behind the gun counter.

Customers would come and ask "Do you have any AR mags?"

"Why yes, we have Thermold 20s and 30s here in this box."

<shift, look around, shift back and forth some more> "Ok...let me get ONE."

<lmao>

Nope.

Went in earlier to speak with the manager.

They had a 1,000 round case of .308 ammo for $799.
