Missed it. Would have been in for 3. :/

Walmart ended up only sending 3 (from 2 different places), said the other 2 were backordered, asked if I'd like to wait or just cancel. Ended up canceling the other 2 (this will make 5, do I really need 7?) and still got the free shipping.
Oddly, I see they have (4) in stock now for less money... (or did earlier when I cancelled the 2 backordered).

Bummer I just ordered one from PA ::)
-
Ha! I think I have at least five .177 mrod magazines, and no more .177 mrod! I could match that deal!
-
$6.73 each.
Thanks for the heads up. They are now out of stock.

Dig them up I would take 2 , and sure some others here might want some also.

Be eal careful about those deals.
Crosman changed manufacturers for their magazines.
I ordered five from AMAZON last year.
They were not in the clear plastic bag like when they first started making the MRod.
They were on a card to be hung on a hook.
Every one of them had the base (the black part) cracked (large cracks).
It is clear to me the holes in the case are being punched (to save a penny or two) and the cases are being cracked.
I sent all of them back.
Amazon replaced them and they were cracked.
Amazon refunded my purchase price.
I smeared glue all over the back of the cases and after dry lightly sanded them smooth.
Cracks disappeared...

Plastic Injection mold designer here... Those are knit lines (https://www.protomold.com/design_tips/unitedstates/2008/2008-06_designtips/default.htm), not cracks. It's due to the molten plastic flow fronts going around openings and "knitting" back together during molding. If you compare multiple mags you'll see that these lines are nearly all identical on all the magazines because the gate location (where the plastic is injected into the cavity) will be the same in each cavity of the mold. These can create weak spots if the flow fronts are "cold" when the rejoin, but the openings on these mags are so small I'd wager to bet the plastic is still very hot when they come back together.

I am not going to argue with you but during a match at Concord, CA two years ago, a loaded mag fell apart into about 10 pieces.
There were a lot of Marauder shooters there at the time and no one had seen that before.
When I spoke to Crosman about it they did not deny the cracks.
AMAZON either.
I have 10 mags and a SS tray so I am fine..

Update - Turned out I had five. I contacted Back_Roads first who agreed to buy the stash, so my bargain gate deal is over too.
