    i always see these 17 mag threads, why are they so hard to come buy? 16 mags don't seem to have an issue, I've ordered them a few and I'm up to 10 now

    SOCOM, Military, LE has priority over Civilian sales. MK16 orders halted, MK17 orders are being filled, so less 17s Scars for civilians, and less mags. I have no idea why Force multiplier (FNe-store) has problems getting at least some 17s mags, its been over 1 year, and people are still waiting. Keep checking the forum's for sale section, TD17 sold 700 FNH 17s mags that were made in Belgium. I was lucky and took the advice of the admin's here and bought early!

    Here is an old article but it sums it up nicely

    The advice from the admins to buy some of TD17s magazines was HUGELY helpful.

    Yeah, if it's the one I read he said he didn't want to put used mags in his new SCAR. I guess he must have a pile of new mags he uses once then done. Should make for a good stream of once fired mags in the for sale forum.

    Either that or the seller found out that they are not original mags

    His mags were those sold by TD17. He feels they were used mags. The ones I bought from TD looked great.

    The mags I received from TD17 where nothing but new.
    Didn't come in the retail style FN box but they where definitely new.
    Possibly military overstock ? Dunno don't care

    Now if I could only find a FDE rifle at a reasonable price I would be gtg.

    BTW even snatched a deal on a set of optics for it ... But still no rifle.
