    Any plans to make the G19 mags with the new sand colored polymer?

    I don't care how they look, but if the sand polymer is stronger, that's what I want...

    Yes, the wheel is the appropriate place to find the date code with the arrow on the month and the year in the center. Another way to tell on the 17 is that there is a larger "11" in a circle by the date code. If it's a "9", it's an old body. 11 or higher is fine. They should all be 11's now, but someone may read this next year or something, so 11 <or higher>.

    Sand is unlikely for the Glock mags, since there is some special sauce in the GL9 material to prevent the mags from swelling and not dropping free. Never say never, though. I know I want some, so we'll see. :-)

    The material that's used in the GL mags is pretty stout. Because of the small box section and thick feed lips, there are different material requirements than an M4 mag. Those little guys are pretty solid as is. Based on the drop testing we've done, sand may only add the ability to dye, but we'll see. I'm sure we'll get around to testing it.

    Any plans for glock pmag mag "accessories" ? Extensions, ranger plates, things of that nature? I could get pretty excited about a 23 round glock pmag.... Just asking here. I heard murmurs of such things when the glock pmag was released but nothing in recent times.

    I ran these hard in a class a week ago this Saturday. I had 12 PMAGS with me.

    The only problem I had was inserting a mag with the slide forward (I also normally load my mags to only 16 rounds, one short.) on three occasions was I thought for sure the mag was locked-in place and when I fired the round already previously chambered, it dropped about an inch and I had to TRB it back into place.

    This was in a Glock 34 and I did not have this problem with factory mags. I don't know if the mag release was just barely catching or what. It does get stubborn to push rounds down when you hit that 16th round though, a real bitch to get the 17th in.

    If I had an bit of an extended floorplate, I think I would have got it locked in. You guys might want to think about a taller floorplate.

    I bought two to play with. When loaded with 17 rounds they mag catch on my Gen2 G17 does not fully engage. You can see how the catch on the right side is not fully down, and you do not get a good "click" when you seat the magazine. You can not just pull it out, but you don't have to press the mag release much at all to get it to drop. Curiously I downloaded to 16 rounds and the catch still does not seem to go in all of the way. I have not fired them yet, hopefully soon.

    Any updates on these mags? Are they proving themselves reliable now?

    I got two about three weeks ago.

    I ran both of them in a training session with a Glock 19 and 17, respectively, for about 250 rounds (both total) and had no malfunctions.
