    Magpul M93B

    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.

    For around how much?

    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.
