Every used mag I've seen for sale was being dumped for good reason, he is better off not depending on unreliable junk. He can raise a pretty good ruckus with what he has already, if the gun is reliable with them.

Regarding the used police trade in mags..sometimes that's correct and sometimes it isn't.

I bought some Norwegian G17 mags that were supposed to be used, but they worked perfectly. I've never had any trouble with them.

Granted, I bought them because they were unusual and only $16.00, but they lasted through a qualification class I shot with some local deputies, and had no bobbles whatsoever.

I upgraded my 25 auto to one that was well built with a fair sense of accuracy.Then I had to find a mag for it.I was at a large gun show,and many dealers had piles of used and new mags.I finally found one.The price?45 bucks and was glad to pay it as it was the only one there!I have a gun shop in a nearby town that I really like,Very knowledgeable people run it.They can order me a new one for 65 bucks.When I inquired as to why they cost so much,they said it was a well made pistol that is no longer available.I draw a crowd at the range,as they cannot believe how accurate it is at 25 yards.I was kinda surprised myself.Maybe the wife will buy me a new mag for Christmas.She should.She has commandeered it for herself!!
