Home Forums Hunting & Shooting AR and Tactical Rifles whats a fair rate for 5.56 xm855/ used colt 30rd mags?

just curious as i have been cleaning out the house and hove bout 15 used colt mags and some LC xm855. ppl are goin crazy buying and not looking to get rich, maybe just come up with some money to put towards a new toy. better selling now or holding it to see if we can get more?

Magazines are going crazy but I still don't think you will get more than $20-$25 a piece for them.

Ammo not quite as crazy yet.

Metal mags or Pmags?

100 Pmags just sold on gunbroker for $7500.

I like the metal mags because they work with my .204 upper as well as the .223s.

I see some astronomical prices asked. I don't know who is paying that. I would agree that metal mags would probably be worth about $20, but if you can get more, more power to you.

If you decide to sell some, let me know what you want for them.

mine are all metal. mostly colt but found a few brownells as well. i aint got any need so they will pry go down the road.

There is no "fair rate" at the moment. It's like trying to set a price on a lifejacket after the Titanic already has a hole in it. I would stick them on GunBroker at a fair starting price and see what the market will bear. I seriously doubt you'll be unhappy with the final price.
