SGAmmo Posted March 22 Report Share Posted March 22 Hey guys, I picked up a mp44 recently and it came with one mag but I would like to have a few more. Does anyone know of a source for original mags other than gunbroker? I see some aftermarket mags for $90 each. Has anyone used these to see if the work as they should?

honkl Posted March 23 Report Share Posted March 23 I believe Jerry has some over at ReconOrd, but i dont believe they are original? and quite pricy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SGAmmo Posted March 25 Author Report Share Posted March 25 I ordered a few of these $89 ones, if anyone cares, I'll test them in a week or so 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beatone Posted April 6 Report Share Posted April 6 My understanding is those 90.00 mags have to be modified to work with a MP44. There was a guy on gunbroker (MG34gunner i believe) who was modifying the feed ramps to make them work properly. He sold them a few years back for 149.00. I haven't sean him sell any lately. I did buy one but haven't got around to testing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FreeinAZ Posted April 8 Report Share Posted April 8 My experience has been poor. Bought 2 from the company mentioned and neither would fit into the mag well of my MP43. Sent them back. Bought 2 more at a higher price from Legacy, they fit into the mag well, but do not feed at all. All rounds point down. You could tell this was going to happen just by loading them. If anybody knows of a source of reliable mags, I'm all ears. Paying $700+ for a mag sucks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reichstall Posted April 13 Report Share Posted April 13 what is hard to believe is they made so may where did they all go. Just like the reising mags there has to be a giant box somewhere full of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MPFiveO Posted April 15 Report Share Posted April 15 They're overseas somewhere, possibly Ukraine or Africa. It just depends on what war was going on at the time and what the buyer was willing to pay at the time out of desperation. There are plenty of magazines and ammo out there, it's just not available here. One has to understand that in most countries, weapons are tools and not collectible like they are here. Here they are a luxury and there they are a necessity. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
