EVO accessories

Not that much.  I like a dozen mags for each gun, and even at 5 mags per gun, 300 mags only serves 60 orders...

For something that is a daily use gun, yes, have well north of a dozen mags for my SA vz-58. For a fun toy? Not so much. If it comes something I'll use more and more often, heck yes. Most I'll probably do is jungle clip the 30s together for a bedside gun - wearing PJs doesn't give you many pockets or belts for gear you can't sleep with anyway, so you gotta "run with what you brung." 60 rounds of 9mm is a lot of "brung".  But eventually, I'll probably end up with ten or so magazines, just for the heck of it, especially if anyone ever makes a beta drum for it - THAT I would go down and sell blood plasma for.

Well, even for "fun guns" it's worth having extras IMO.  These are plastic so will eventually break.  And since we never know what ridiculous laws might be passed, I have an aim for a minimum of 6 "hi-cap" (actually standard capacity for those of us who aren't  of the anti-gun paranoid alarmist thought police tell make believe stories long enough you might just get others to believe you fairy tales set) pistol magazines per pistol and 12 magazines per rifle w/ 10 to do being ideal on pistols and 20 on rifles...  Yes, it's expensive and maybe excessive, but I also equip/meet minimum mags goals before building a spare/repair part set for new guns and then once the spares are met then begin fill out the rest of the mags... 

Worst case, you get desperate for cash and have to sell them during normal times for what you paid or ban times for a hefty profit...  Best case, you have magazines to run your weapons for life and don't have to worry about politicians or market panics...

Been there, done that, worked at a gun shop right after the '94 AWB was passed, won't forget that garbage! The wonder-fun of unscrupulous dealers who would open up NIB pistols with two magsm and sell it with one, and the other mag on the shelf for three-five times the original price. Yep, the era of $19.99 EVO 30 round mags might not last long. Hopefully the magazines will, as shown overseas, apparently they are tougher than they look. Maybe next time I'll get a couple more.

"These are plastic so will eventually break."

Actually, I have some 20+ year old Steyr AUG and SIG 550/551 mags that show no wear whatsoever, and I have put tens of thousands of rounds through one of my AUGs.  There are plastics and there are plastics.   

Whatever plastics Steyr and SIG are using seem to be indestructible.  Hopefully Evo mags are in the same category. 

I have dozen of 30 rounders coming by FedEx next Tuesday.   BTW, you can never have too many mags.

The 20 rounders are pretty darn sturdy. I'd actually be more concerned with the longevity of the metal mags for my CZ pistols.
