No, what you are seeing is price gougers. 2 weeks ago I picked up several from Centermass firearms for $89 apiece but they were gone in like 60 minutes. I don't think the motherload has hit the shores yet but when it does expect to pay around $90 per mag.I'm seeing a lot of UMP Mag's available all of the sudden. Unfortunately still at over $100. Could it be that HK is finally shipping them?

$90 a mag when they are back in stock?! Now I don't feel too bad paying $135.No, what you are seeing is price gougers. 2 weeks ago I picked up several from Centermass firearms for $89 apiece but they were gone in like 60 minutes.

Well considering that we were paying $60 each less than a year ago...... $135 makes me sick to my stomach.$90 a mag when they are back in stock?! Now I don't feel too bad paying $135.
And $45 the year before that............Well considering that we were paying $60 each less than a year ago...... $135 makes me sick to my stomach.
Yes they are coming into distributers now, just missed a batch today by about an hour. But even the wholesale is way up from where it used to be , I doubt they will be cheep again.I'm seeing a lot of UMP Mag's available all of the sudden. Unfortunately still at over $100.

I was in the same place as you very recently, and I decided to just go for it and buy a few to hold me over. If and when they go down I'll certainly be in the market for a bunch more, but I'm in no hurry. You have to remember that all said and told this is like a $3000 project. An extra $50 or $100 for a magazine over recent prices isn't really a big hit in the grand scheme.I still haven't picked up all my ump conversion parts to do the conversion, but do you guys think I should jump on some now when they pop up again or wait a couple more months? I really don't want to get gouged anymore than people are now...
Are we going to see prices level off or increase over the next month or two? Or is it just a gamble either way?
9mm mags also available at hkparts9mm UMP mags available NOW @ HK specialist. $93.
9mm are now available for $93-100. Looks like July-Aug 2012 on the .45's but all of these are going to be right at $100. It is what it is.Any news on UMP mags?

The real issue is whether the dealers will actually sell at that price or do a big markup knowing that they have been in short supply.9mm are now available for $93-100. Looks like July-Aug 2012 on the .45's but all of these are going to be right at $100. It is what it is.
