Lambda Posted May 7, 2019 Share Posted May 7, 2019 After buying an AS VAL from patrolbase to be told 1) it was faulty on inspection and 2) it was the last one in stock i was gutted, as i had paid a small fortune for mags for it from firesupport which i'm now in the long process of sending back and hoping for a refund. i ended off getting one of these instead from Patrolbase ( https://www.patrolbase.co.uk/nuprol-romeo-series-nomad-and-recon-ak-rifle?pv=8422 ) it came with only one mag this ( https://www.patrolbase.co.uk/d-day-dmag-ak-30-135rds-variable-cap-magazine ) i have no idea why you would want a magazine that caps at 30 rounds ( maybe for milsim but i have no interest in that ) and the magazine is too small even in 130cap setting and will last me 5 minutes out on the field before stopping mid firefight to refill it. i found on patrol base my perfect mag a 550cap mag this one (https://www.patrolbase.co.uk/d-day-dmag-ak-550rds-hi-cap-magazine) exactly like the one the AK came with ( to satisfy my matching magazine OCD ) however the black is sold out i've checked everywhere.... and cannot find the same magazine inside the uk, the closest i have found is at taiwangun and there's no way i'm going to get those before the games this weekend ( which is 4/5 days away ) does anyone know where i can buy these new / used as i'm pretty much desperate now. Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AK47frizzle Posted May 7, 2019 Share Posted May 7, 2019 https://airsoftpro.cz/en/magazines/for-electric-aeg-guns/for-ak/vysokokapacitni-zasobnik-pmag-pro-ak-na-600-ran-detail A lot of other brands make them in that style, just search ak pmag for airsoft.

We are expecting them to be back in stock within 1 to 2 weeks time. You should see the product say "Add To Basket" once it is back in stock ready to buy. Regards, Andy Holmes Store Supervisor and Customer Services Department So it looks like i'm going to have to look elsewhere tonight and cross everything the mags arrive before Sat / Sunday this week or it's another week wasted and my AK not used which in itself is the biggest crime. 😥😥 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lambda Posted May 8, 2019 Author Share Posted May 8, 2019 Ended off asking if they had anything else they could confirm would fit and suggest i get instead and got no feedback over 2 days, so emailed off again and put in webpage chat if these would fit (https://www.patrolbase.co.uk/cyma-c-42-ak-47-74-waffle-550rnd-hi-cap-magazine) no response either, looking more like another weekend missed as i can't spend £70 on mags again that aren't confirmed compatible.
