I managed to get a couple of 10 round AR 15-22 mags, which was nice as everywhere I was looking on the net were waiting for stock.

In fact I would go so far as to say it was total disaster in more ways than one. However a friend persuaded me to give it another try again yesterday and have to admit that I was very impressed.
I felt the same way as you after the first year and have not been back since however I am mellowing and might try and get to the next one if we have spare time.

£35 for a magazine is cheap compared to the cost of a new magazine for many sporting rifles. Look up the price of a spare magazine for a Sako, Blaser or Steyr and see what I mean, even a Tikka can be far more than that.

Oh I Understand that but we're on about mags for which £35 is quite expensive. Same show, four stalls down, 25 round nags were £25
