Who knew they were this goddamn expensive? I've searched the sites I know and can't find anything under $30 a piece for 10 shot and $40 a piece for 12.

I'll buy used, IDGAF. I have a p2000 357sig, but I can use USP compact magazines and I can use .40 caliber ones as well. That's what makes me think I can find these cheaper. 40's aren't that popular and they've been making these guns for ages.

Point me in the right direction? I want a few. I'd love a couple of flat plate versions, without the pinky ridge.

You're lucky to be able to find bb's at this point. I can't find mags for my cheapo Taurus 24/7 9mm.

HK mags are notoriously pretty expensive. It might be harder to find a better price, especially with the current market.

All the Magazines are hiding in my Hoard Closet...right beside the clips.

Unfortunately prime hoard time was in January. Things are pretty scarce now....I would suggest checking someone's closet.



Find a website that does not scalp on prices and live on it....that is about all that is working now. Even the email alerts get to you too late to buy. I am seeing things sell out within 1 minute of being available.

I'll probably just stake out HKPro or the like and try to jump on a few used ones if they ever come up.

Depends on the magazine. The Economist is pretty meat and potatoes.

That's about what they were selling for before the rush. I'd buy what I can find.

I researched these HK for a good 6 months before buying one. I went back and forth on what caliber I wanted and watched auctions of each on gunbroker. For HK there's also a trigger variation that really effects the saleability of the gun, the V2 (LEM) is the most sought after since with a few spring it can be converted to a light LEM which is really the model people want. The V3 .40 was the most available and the cheapest, the V2 9 is impossible to find. The 357 sigs are all over the place on price and while I watched I saw them increase in price a couple of hundred. I really wanted that caliber in V2 though.

The 40s seem to be in less demand for some reason, I have no idea why. This is just on gunbroker and just based on final auction prices. I'll likely pick up a 40 barrel for my 357 when I find a used one.
