Are they made out of aluminum or plastic? I assume aluminum with a plastic window, but just checking

The new style are plastic. These are the style where the whole cover comes off and you can load using a speed loader. The old style that you have to load one pellet at a time while rotating the cover are aluminum with a clear plastic cover.

So the new ones are plastic and the old ones were aluminum except for the cover? Sorry looks like that's exactly what you said lol.. My buddy is wanting one and I had no idea about spare magazines. Since the new ones are plastic I'm sure they're a lot cheaper than the aluminum ones. That's another reason for him to buy one. I've never had a problem with cheap plastic magazines if they work.

All I can really locate are the more expensive magazines on the net. Does anyone have a link to the plastic ones? The ones I see are $50 and must be new old stock aluminum ones. The plastic ones aren't special order are they?

I'll send him the link but I think he wants FX made cheap plastic magazines. I see the FX made aluminum ones for $50 on a few sites so I'm sure the FX plastic ones are about the same price as these aftermarket ones

The all plastic mags are 50-70 dollars depending on who you buy them from. The plastic ones work great with the stud mag loader system.

So the $50 ones i'm seeing are plastic? If the cheaper made ones are $50 how much are the older aluminum ones? Not sure he'll go for $50 plastic magazines..

There are no “cheap” FX mags. Try Orion (the iguana hunter) he makes nice mags a bit cheaper.

The plastic mags are $49.99 at PA, https://www.pyramydair.com/product/fx-crown-standard-side-shot-magazine-22-18-rnds?a=9048
The old style aluminum mags may no longer be available. When they were, they were $79.99. This is what they looked like:

I personally like the new style, they are much easier to load, and if you get a couple speed loaders, you don't really need multiple magazines. The speedloaders can be found for around $20 each.
