    PMAG 17 GL9: PMAG for Glock 9mm

High visibility anti-tilt follower, SS spring, easily removable floorplate for cleaning, Dot matrix for mag marking, ridged floorplate edges for better grip, 17rd indicator windows. Drops free loaded or unloaded. The same boring reliability you expect from an OEM magazine. MSRP $15.95

    I wondered when Magpul was going to get into the handgun magazine market.

    Yeah, for that price I'll take a couple, or ten.

    Interesting price point...

    Undercut Glock themselves. The real benefit here is that since there IS no steel reinforcing the mags wont expand over time resulting in sticky mags. Hmm...i wonder how well these will drop free.

    I wonder how durable the feed lips will be considering there is no steel reinforcing. At 15 dollars a piece, i almost dont care...

    Now I have to buy pistol mags.

    I don't even like shooting pistol.

    It took some doing in order to get them to drop free all the time and still be 100% reliable, especially when left loaded at high temperatures for long periods of time. But...we figured it out. Took some fancy compositions in the polymer, but they work like a champ. We even froze the guns and heat soaked the mags over time, and then checked that those dropped free. We had a lot of room to make the lips thick.

    Long and black and full of ammo a Glock mag from Magpul comes feeding ammo and with each round it feeds the shooter goes ahhhhhhh....
    If you can't win a gun fight against a lightly-trained individual during broad daylight with 88 rounds of 30-06, I'm not sure you'd be able to do it with... any other firearm.

    Ok, I've got an El Camino full of rampage here, so what's the plan?

    I don't see much of a point other than maybe being easier to service if the base pads are not ridiculously difficult to remove like current Glock mags.

    Good job Magpul.

    We only waited a few years for this to happen, but I guess even a genius needs to go through his process to reach the answer.

    Actually not so much undercutting Magpul, but pricing them to where even the POS KCI mags aren't a deal for those looking for extra mags cheap. Hell used Glock mags go for $15 or so. I think Magpul may have a hard time keeping this line in stock. Am definitely down for a handful to start with to do some testing. If they are as good as Pmags I would likely invest in 20 or some. This sucks! Am going to have to factor another glock into my inventory just to justify all the mags I want. Lol.
