I know Magpul provides users with a decent offering but I still like my SR25 mags better.
The problem that is motivating stuff like this isn't the price or problems with the mags, but rather the sheer difficulty in the finding them at *any* price. They can definitely be had, but it takes some work and often times you may find folks expect you to pay a premium.
I got about 11 mags at a slight premium (I paid about $7 over what each of them should have cost) but many have not been so lucky and are stuck with the one mag that came with the gun. Where there's desperation, folks do things like this. The mags themselves are great and not super expensive at $30-40.
