Anyone know if these are still on anyone's shelves? I know Magpul's website says "discontinued", but I would really like to see them bring it back.

As I understand it, and from owning one I believe it, they are EXTREMELY cost-prohibitive to manufacture. They were a very complicated device and I don't see any way they could have made any money on them when they were selling them. They were also very heavy for what they were.

I'm glad they made them, as they laid the groundwork for the CTR and UBR and such today, but I don't think they'll be returning. You might find a used one from time to time and should jump on them then if you do.

I occasionally see them listed on eBay, usually for a very hefty price. I'd get the UBR.


For around how much?:confused:

I've got a UBR and a CTR. I just like them for some odd reason.

A little off topic. How do I get a hard copy of magpul's catalog. I didn't see an option on their site.

No idea. You could call Monday and ask- they are usually pretty cool about that type of stuff.

I think that Ebay and the second hand market is your best bet. A good many of the Magpul 93s that were sold to military units have already been replaced. They were too heavy many end users and too expensive to produce. One of the reasons that Magpul was able to climb to the top is because of their forward thinking. If they feel that their product is not the best then they keep working on it hence the UBR.
Good luck in your search.

and good luck in finding a hard copy catalog. I heard that a new version was produced since SHOT but I haven't seen it.

I've seen the PDF for 2008 if that's what you are talking about. Normally sites have a "send me a catalog" button. Maybe magpul doesn't do this? No big deal just wondering. I will call Monday like mentioned above and let everyone know that cares.

What color are you looking for?....;)

OD, but not sure if they ever made them in that color- FDE wouldn't be bad for a future (retro :eek: ) build...

Dave: If FDE is your pleasure, see Grant for his. I don't recall ever seeing an O.D. one? You can email Magpul and ask if they ever made one.

Ya, black and FDE are all I have ever seen. I'll probably just wait for the UBR to come out in OD.
Thanks for the info,
Dave

I've got an OD green one on my 6920 that will be for sale in the near future.

I'd love to get a UBR, but they're pretty scarce in Canada.... :(

The UBRs are pretty scarce down in the states as well right now.

It may be a typo, but Bravo Company has them listed in their magazine ads for $185.

Magpul is, as we all know, a great company that stands behind their products without reservation.

That said, I would not put an M93 of any flavor on any of my weapons. Hand me your M93 equipped weapon, and chances are I can probably hand it back to you in more than one piece in about 10 seconds. It's not likely to happen in any sort of *normal* use, or even abuse, but once is enough for me.

How the hell does someone break this thing.

Being careful (obviously) not to point the weapon at yourself (or to whack yourself in the face later), put the butt on the ground with your foot over the tailpiece. Pull upwards on the weapon.

I've got, I think, about 6~7 of them in black, FDE (coyote) and OD green that I'm just about ready to turn loose of. Some are new, never mounted and some are mounted once and removed. Strike plates, HK sling adapters and probably some other odds and ends related to them too.
