No need to worry, Midway will do just fine.

I’ve heard that it’s a few thousand. They will only release a few hundred at a time though, to keep profits high

Yeah guilty as charged but it’s because I have a few that I’m planning to sell. It’ll be interesting to see if these imports and the classic firearms “rebuilds” will drive prices up or down

Still going to go up pricewise.

CMP has no more, good chance the current menstruation won't allow any more back in. Surprised these are making it.

I have 2 universal's.
The function well with 15 rd mags.
But 30 round are hit or miss. Sometimes they run and other times I have to push 3 or 4 times the bolt to make them feed.
I decided to change the springs and checked Wolff site and the tune up kits are sold out. I was lucky because I happened to find a site that said the universals use a duel recoil spring.
I went on and found Ebay that had 6 in stock and I ordered 2 for 17.00 each.
Most likely it's the mags since 15 rd are reliable. Time will tell.
