Magpul Mags

[alan226]

What is your opinion of Magpul Glock magazines? They look to be about half the price of OEM Glock mags, but they lack some of the features of the OEM Glock nags like metal lining and round indicator holes. Are they as reliable and function the same as the OEM?

 

[MAGA99]

I’ve never had an issue. I wish they had more witness holes….

I carry factory Glock mags though.

You would have to run way more rounds than I have to say if they're dead nuts reliable or not.

I have hundreds of rounds through their G19 mags and tens of thousands through PMAGS. You can drop them on the mouth and they stop working but it's ok because they're like $8.

For the life of me I cannot understand this skinflinting. Glock mags are cheap as it is (unless you're buying from Rapetile), why get something else just to save a few bucks? It's such a minimal difference imo.

I've got some 10 round Magpul Glock mags and they've worked fine for me.

Adds up if you plan to buy 100

Not skinflinting. They came with the gun

 

[MAGA99]

Are you allowed to use factory Glock mags in a ‘ghost gun?!’

I’m not sure on the official ruling but my own etiquette says no.

 

[Lank]

All my ar mags are magpul. Never had an issue

 

[xtry51]

I haven't had an issue with the about 20 I own. I use them for training and spare gear. I prefer OEM with Dawson 5rd extensions and that's what I keep on my primary gear, but it's expensive to setup full kits like that.

I do it...... But I am known for bad etiquette.

Guess I am the only one to have issues. I grabbed 5 G19 mags, when they first came out. Opened two. I couldn't get them to empty the mag without a malfunction. I tried different ammo. since MAGPUL suggested it. They were going to have me send them back. Until I asked about the unopened ones. If they had a bad batch. Fine. But, you take care of a customer. They ran me through 20 questions as well. I won't buy any more of those mags. AR Pmags have always worked.

They're good mags, I bought a bunch of them for my Ruger PC carbine and I consider them SHTF one time use mags.

I have used glock pmags w/no issues, in various sizes and configurations.

Because you can get more mags. I buy both and have tons of both. Magpul glock mags work fine. I always carry oem though, perhaps out of superstition.

 

[mu2bdriver]

No issue with any Magpul magazine product.

I have had issues with PMAGs in actual glock pistols, plus if you keep them loaded they swell and won't drop free from a pistol. My Ruger PC9 loves them though, they work great in that.

i have a mix of always loaded gen5 glock mags and pmags in a 10 mag range holder - no issues at all.

 

[SKumar]

Easier to load than OEM mags.

 

[headednorth]

Ive never had any issues with them. Taken a few 2 day classes with them and they worked fine. If they work ok and they are like half the cost of OEM why not buy them? I admit to carrying OEM though.

 

[zmd]

I run a 9mm PCC in Steel challenge matches. I have 10 magpul mags . They are very reliable and very cost effective.

 

[Mark from MA]

Never had issues in the Gen 5 17 In general they are range mags only, but they run.
