It's the SASS model and they probably just want to get rid of those. The B model is no more. They don't make those anymore.

I think they will make mags for a long time as the most common AR10 out there is still {I think} the AR10B tho I might be wrong about that.
I don't think they will make any more magazines either; the website shows them to be out of stock in all capacities. I bought a bunch some months back to guard against that. They may make more if there is demand for it, but I would not hold my breath. If you do not have many magazines, you should scour the web to see where you can buy some. I found some at Brownells months ago.
I got an email from Brownells today:
Valued Brownells.com Customer,
Recently you asked us to let you know when the product listed below returned to inventory at Brownells.com. We're happy to inform you that we just got a shipment in!
062-000-002 - Armalite AR-10 Magazine 308 Winchester 20rd Steel Black

Thanks.
I have a bunch but always good to know where a few more are lurking.
Also, B mag availability has always been up and down. I don't think lack of availability at any given time is an indicator of cessation of production unless the company indicates they have been discontinued.
The B model is still the single most common AR10 out there and I reckon mags will be available for a long time. Just my $.02.
Regardless, they are EXCELLENT magazines, and the variable capacities are very nice as well.
Frankly, the whole AR10 industry made a big mistake going the other way IMO.
