Prices for a 90% FXO mag with an unmolested bakelite bottom would currently start at about $85 and go up from there... depending on how many are available and who needs them... I have also seen them go for well over $140.00 for really nice ones. Price is a matter of supply and demand. There seems to be a higher demand for WW2 antiques than WW1 because there is simply more interest that time period and the effect it had on world society... Naturally the WW2 generally have about 20 to 25 years less wear on them as well. The final mags made (FXO) type, were the best ever made... solid extruded steel that was machined instead of stamped and folded sheetmetal like the old ones. IMHO, the FXO type is the FINEST handgun magazine ever made.
