And they sucked. After loading the mag, the slide wouldn't drop by pulling slide back. If I hit mag release it dropped. But it locked back after every round then every other as the mag emptied. Very sporadic.

I thought they might be good for gaming and shits and giggles, they sucked so bad. ETM worked fine on my MP5 so I got lulled to sleep.

I rarely buy aftermarket mags but I couldn't find factory mags in stock-STUPID

Do you mean ETS Mags? I have had mixed results as well, their G17/19 pattern magazines seem to work fine in my Glocks and their G42 mags were pretty good as well.

Their G43 mags sucked ballz though. Really crappy - worked 'ok' with some ball ammo, but crappy with other ball and all JHPs. Tried to get assistance with them but is was just a run around. Eventually threw them all away.

I have gone back to all OEM Glock mags though - I still have the G17/19 22rd mags and some of their 15rd mags, but sold off as many as many as I could in addition to selling most of my Magpul Glock mags. Still have some and would use them for training if I needed to, but bought enough OEMs that I really don't have to and they all just sit in an ammo can.

I have yet to have a great experience with ETS mags unfortunately.

Bought one for 43x, had oodles of problems. Removed some material in the right places and now it works fine. Picked up 3 more that also are functioning properly. Going to try one on the MP5 next...

Buddy of mine got 2 for his AP5. (Turk Mp5)

The KCI's worked, MKE worked, and HK mags all 100 % for 2 mags each.

The ETS mags couldn't get past about 3 shot with a stoppage. We left them in the range garbage can.
