Also a firm in UK , making 10rd 223 T3 mags out of Aluminium , looks good , but expensive , go to ukvarminting forum to get more info , they are also looking at a 308 version as well ?

These are made in Chch, I know the guy who does them as I recognized his handy work.

If they are made here how come they are still so bloody expensive for a few bits of plastic and metal!!! Or is it gun city with a huge mark-up (wouldn't be surprising)

If they are made locally then that probably isn't a ridiculous price, it's still bloody expensive but not absolutely ridiculous for an NZ made product.

The blurb says they're machined from solid stock so that must push the price way up.
They do look like a quality bit of kit. With all the pest control shooters out there I bet they sell heaps.

When I owned an M14 I would've liked to get an NZ-made scope mount but at over $200 it was half the price of the rifle.

Yes these are CNC machined from billet, not a few bits of plastic & metal @223nut
I would say that it's a fair price for a good bit of kiwi made kit. Sure we would all like it to be under a hundy and have 5 in our day pack for a bomb up but that's just not reality now is it

Ok I stand corrected if they are a quality product!

Importing tikka mags from Europe/ England might be quite a good option now that the exchange rate is better.
