OEM Glock magazines do not fail and it bothers me that people are trying their hardest to avoid them.

Since Glocks are so popular they are also owned by retarded people. Somebody I know is still fairly new to guns. One day he decides he wants a heavy handgun, I know it's because he simply can't shoot as well as he wants to and just never listens to my advice. The one time I was with him shooting he shot better because I was instructing him. Very big ego. He thinks it'll help him shoot better. Sure whatever. I guide him and again don't get listened to. He abruptly says all metal handguns are junk and buys a Glock. I'm confused. He then proceeds to "make it as heavy as possible" and creates an abomination. He literally got a Amazon flashlight and hollowed it out to fill it with some weight putty or something . I guarantee he will eventually buy all metal magazines to continue with this trend.

The other week I handed him my 92 and he was like "WOOOW THIS IS SO HEAVY. THIS IS A NICE GUN. AND IT'S ALL METAL?"

Seems the cut for the release is designed poorly and can cause the magazine to just fall out with default Glock mag releases. It's not just Ben but also others doing tests like Police departments are having issues with bad feeding. Some think having a metal mag release would fix it.

I admit I was disappointed when I saw Ben's video. Figured if anyone could do it Mec-Gar could. Don't actually carry any of my Glocks so they were never gonna be a huge deal for me anyway, I guess.

A small collection of customized wood AK foregrips & rail panels:

I kinda like the last two. Neat.

Edit: these are made by the Russian company "Chupa Workshop".

I figured if any company was going to make a very good steel Glock mag, it would've been Mec-Gar.

Magpul Glock mags suck,

I've had good luck with them so far, but I only use them as range mags.

Magpul Glock mags suck, Mecgar Glock mags suck, the South Korean Glock mags suck, ProMag Glock mags suck, etc. etc. etc.

I mean, the KCI magazines are fine....

If you tear them apart, clean all the plastic flash from the mag bodies, and then replace the mag spring with a Wolff Extra power spring...

I mean, they're literally Korean knock-offs of the Glock Mag, so they're the "least terrible" of the bunch, imho. Cheap way to get a handful of +2 floor plate extensions at least if you only buy them for parts.

Dual wield the Lord's caliber. Also see if you can trade it for a 81BB or something those are fun.

Ahh the new 80X is supposedly coming out with a .380 to .32 conversion kit soon

Msgpul Glock mags seem to be ok enough and the S. Korean stendos are amazing

Yeah it's just a barrel and mag swap. I hope to get a 380 barrel and mag for my 32 sometime. I love they're bringing back the 80 series. I hope it does well. I am sort of surprised that they're making a 32 version as well because it's kind of dead round. 380 with modern defensive ammo is really still pretty good, but 32 really doesn't have anything that I would consider worth carrying. In fact, you usually want to carry full metal jackets because it gives you that extra penetration which you need. But the 32 80s are really fun. They have like zero recoil. It's a nice hefty gun despite being small so that counts for something

I think its a reflexive action at this point. So many automatic pistols have mags that, from the manufacturer, are priced too high in comparison to cheaper mags that are actually just as good. MecGar for example. often MecGar is the OEM supplier anyway (S&W, SiG, Ruger, Colt, CZ, Walther, Beretta, Taurus to name a few) and the manufacturer slaps a premium on the mags with their name stamped on it. so the response of "just but MecGar" is automatic. and right more often than not.

Huh

That's one ugly POS.

CZ mag prices are particularly insane despite their only notable trait being "it fits in a CZ".

to take it further like 95% of DA/SA wonder-9 mags are just Browning High Power mags with slightly different mag catches.

Is it a Hi-Power mag? Or is it a S&W 59 mag? Maybe a Beretta 92 mag? Oh, maybe it's a Ruger P-series! Actually it's a Sig P226 magazine.

Idk about others but P10 mags are like $25. Not awful but obviously not Glock prices. Now, P365 mags are like $35-45 each MSRP. Which is ridiculous for such a common gun.

want to have fun? buy a couple mags for a gun you have off the triple k website. take a shot for every magazine caused malfunction with them on your next range trip.

Heh. I have one of their mags because finding original Mauser 1914 mags is impossible. It's worked so far. But it's also a single stack and lower capacity. I have an original magazine and neither so far have given me issues. Paid a pretty penny for it though. Checking eBay again there's an original magazine for $140. Yeah. They may not be perfect, but I am glad that a company out there is making magazines for some of these older guns. Now I'm having a fit because I want more spare parts for my Mauser and there's a parts kits up for bid that I'd be irresponsible to bid on

Fitting that it's made for the British.

 

[DocAwe]

There is a reason I hesitate to buy any gun that doesn't use a relatively common magazine.
