    The quoted price on the website is $250. I can only assume that’s what I’ll be paying. If H&F add to it I think I will leave it.

    I can’t say I had but it would appear they only make 10, 8 and 1 round magazines for the M595. I currently have a 5 round and want a 3 round mag that sits flush with the rifle.

    H&F called this morning to say the mag had arrived. Shot down to grab it and ‘shockingly’ (not at all) they had in their hot little hands a T3 magazine. I explained that it was not the correct mag and it turned out Beretta had sent the wrong part to them. H&F had the correct part number written down. They called Beretta who informed them that they don’t have any of those in stock but are able to get them but will likely be a 6 month wait

    Yea that’s getting a bit ridiculous. I paid $1000 for the rifle about 15 years ago. It’s not worth much to anyone other than me. $300 for a piece of plastic is quite outrageous.

    Interesting to know about the courier cost. Why $160? Seems quite outrageous.
    the couriers have a captive market. anything else gets picked up no worries but they can charge that much because we have no other choice

    I’ve only seen plastic magazines for the M595? The M55’s were definitely all steel.

    I have a 595 in .223 and the 3 round mag that came with it is plastic. The factory six round mag I got for it is steel.

    I have both plastic and steel for the 595. The 5 rounds are steel with bottom plastic.
