    Sealed Colt 1911 Mags Value?

    I just found these original Colt 1911 mags that I purchased close to 20yrs ago that are still sealed in original packaging. The base plate indicates they were made by Metalform because it has a "M" stamp in the rear left corner. My question is do these have any higher value than current production ones or am I just wishing upon a star?

    I'd say around $20 each.

                Most civilization is based on cowardice. It's so easy to civilize by teaching cowardice. You water down the standards which would lead to bravery. You restrain the will. You regulate the appetites. You fence in the horizons. You make a law for every movement. You deny the existence of chaos. You teach even the children to breathe slowly. You tame.

                    They'll never be worth much. It's not like they're the factory original magazines to a rare 1911.

                            They'd need to be vintage era from WWI/WWII

                            Ask yourself, what's a 30 year old Colt worth compared to a 90 year old colt.

                              I'm going to pass it down to the next generation and the next and the next. Hopefully it'll be worth at least 3 digits by then. Haha.
