How do separate Glock mags?

[boombotz401]

Just out of curiosity wondering what you guys do

I own a g19 and just bought a g23 both gen 4, I may just put vickers base plates on the 40 mags in FDE but maybe y'all have a better solution

I can see grabbing the wrong mag on accident as a possibility


Anyone interested, the g23 is on sportmans superstore for 339$ shipped gen 4 in "good" LE trade in condition. I couldn't resist

If you are worried about it, get a white paint pen and write “9" or “40" on the mag. I number my mags to easier identify problems and put my initials on them so that I can recover “my” mags when training with a group.

I do number them to identify issues.

I'm just concerned since I seen a friend light off a 9 in a 40, wasn't pretty

Want to figure out a way where if I ever do "accidentally" grab the wrong mag Id have to be a complete idiot.

I'm either thinking

ETS clear mags for one caliber (idk if these are carry reliable)

Vickers FDE baseplate

Neither are ideal to me

The trick is to only buy 9mm Glock 19s.

That way all your mags interchange with all your handguns.

Same with 5.56mm AR15s.

I've found that silver Sharpies write much better than paint pens.

That works too.

Ha @ 339 to my FFL I couldn't say no!

I keep them in separate bins.

I also colorfill the caliber.

I also have a designated "go bag" with an undisclosed number of Glock magazines that exist for no other purpose but emergency

This.

(Or a paint pen and diligence, if you insist on variety.)

I literally do this exact thing with my P30 9mm and 40 cal mags.
