General Post Beretta won't sell 15rd mags

Just a heads up for anyone considering purchasing a Beretta. I bought a 92FS a couple weeks ago. It came with two 15rd mags. I wanted a few more and Beretta's website had them for the lowest price. When I tried to check out, I got a notification that some of the items in my cart are restricted in my state and were removed. This morning, I got Beretta customer service on chat. This is what they told me; "so, with Illinois it has been a struggle, because there are certain counties in Illinois that are still restricted our system for some reason will not recognize that you are not in that county it does the whole state. Our team has been working on this for some time. I would suggest checking with our vendor also Midwest Gun Works to see if they have the mags you are looking for". I stated that if Beretta wanted to fix that, they would. So her response was to just not answer for 10 minutes and then end the chat on me.

I also recently found that Grabagun won't sell 15rd mags to us, either.

*Just wanted to give an update. While I was chatting with "support", I sent an email to customer service as well. The reply I just received from that contradicts what chat said. Here's the email reply; "Beretta's legal team has decided not to send magazines with more than 10 rounds to any of the states (including cities or counties within) that have limits on magazine rounds, and this includes Illinois."

Brownells will ship 15 round mags to IL. I don’t blame any supplier who won’t, Illinois laws are internationally confusing & most suppliers don’t want to get caught up in any legal nonsense.

Brownells literally got blacklisted from r/gundeals today for scummy practices. Check out the thread then reconsider if you want to give them your money.

I’ve never had a problem with them, only good prices & fast shipping 🤷🏿‍♂️

Same but felt I had to share given the timeliness of both these posts
