JIm YackleyI have seen the go for $15-20. There is a demand for them,easier to shoot of the bench with a 20 rd mag.

homebrewerI have eight original Colts from the mid-1980s that have never had a round in them. I'll never sell 'em. It's the principle in keeping them for what they are...

Rick RThey're going for a bit more than in 1986 when a gun shop I frequented had a barrel full of them wrapped four to the package in what looked like Wrigley's chewing gum wrapper paper. They were $20 per pack. Back then I had money for one pack.

Now I'm usually seeing them at @ $20.00 each.

I'm just going to keep mine and use Magpul PMAGs. I've seen the 20-round variety. They look damned fine. They have a satisfying heft and make a nice sound when you click 'em into the magwell...
