    I've loaded and shot a hell-uva-lotta Glock mags, but this is a new one for me. That is a malfunction drill that I have not practiced for…

    Man, I'm glad I've never spent money on one of them toy Glocks if the mags only last 10 years...

    I have seen this happen before. usually with guys running extended base plates, the reason i dont run said plates for serious use guns. I have even seen it happen to a guy at a shoot with two mags back to back. shoot. mag dumps guts. reload and next mag dumps guts. made for some chuckles and really nice reaction to the malf/issue to get the gun back up and complete the stage. the gun and mags both had been run hard as well.. i chalk it up to everything can wear and break and move on.

    I saw that happen to a Glock 21SF at a qualification I was RO'ing at back in 2007 or 8. Mag was fairly new, just decided to puke it's guts up that day.

    Happened to a buddy of mine. He used to CCW a double stack 1911, some freak thing happened when he was standing up or sitting down (can't remember) and 14 rounds of .45 proceeded to spill and scatter all over the floor at McDonalds.

    That sucks. But goes to show you all magazines are disposable items

Their swords, and every other terrible implement of the soldier, are the birthright of an American… The unlimited power of the sword is not in the hands of either the federal or state government, but, where I trust in God it will ever remain, in the hands of the people”

    This happened to a friend of mine. He placed an order with CDNN for something else and received a couple of +2 floor plate extensions for free. He installed one on his carry gun. It was on there for a while until one day he was driving down the road and the magazine unloaded itself inside his glove box. Needless to say, he doesn't use the extensions now.
