BhmJeep Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 Since Production is limited to 10 rounds do you guys buy 10 round mags or just load 10 rounds in the standard hi-cap mags? Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G-ManBart Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 Most people use the standard 17rd mags. They seat easier, and you can also load to 11 for your LAMR mag. R, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EkuJustice Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 I use both. If you use the 17 rounders unload them after you fire them and reload them every time. 11 in a mag at the start is a good trip to open Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R, +1 I also like the 17rd mags for live fire practice. When I'm doing 3 target transitions or accuracy drills, etc it cuts down on constantly reloading my magazines.

R, The 9mm tenners are fine as far as seating and feeding, even in a lightly sprung Glock. The 40 ten rounders run with 11# and 13# recoil springs on a case by case basis.

Duane Thomas Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 I have not had good luck, feed reliability-wise, with 10-round Glock 9mm mags. I know that some people have. I use 10-rounders for nothing but dry fire practice. For live fire practice and match use, it's 17-rounders all the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flack jacket Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 Most people use the standard 17rd mags. They seat easier, and you can also load to 11 for your LAMR mag. R, I do that for my production pistol. If you're gonna spend $$ on a magazine, I just get the proper one and load the mags per rules of the game. When carry/home.... full capacity!

vluc Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 (edited) I've shot Production for years using the 10 rounders with zero problems. I've also used the 17 rounders on occasion. Aside from easier to load and weighing a tad less, I really prefer 10. When they are full there is only 10, no guessing, do need to double-check, and a brain f%^t is all you need to find yourself in Open. I've seen too many do that at unloaded starts or other times. Mine are from back in teh day when the ban was in place. Since then, fellow shooters who wanted to get rid of them have been kind enough to give them to me. Now I sit with 20 10-rounders and double that in high caps. Edited January 13, 2011 by vluc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarge Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 Since there is more to life than shooting matches, conventional wisdom tells me never buy anything other than a Hi Cap magazine when legally allowed. You never know....... I got bumped to open once for having too many rounds in a mag. My old eyes had a hard time seeing into the witness holes. I drilled out the 10,11,and 12 holes to make them a little bigger. Made a world of difference! I also make sure not to mark primers when I mark brass. I want them as shiny as possible.

JimmyZip Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 I use the 10 rounders and have no issues with feeding. They drop free fine, and work exceptionally well. I do not know about this 17 rounder as I live in CA. I do have a Barney mag for those times it is warranted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike I run the 17 round standard capacity mags in PRD. Luckily, I don't need to worry about the 10 round reduced capacity magazines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only other thing my 10-rounders get used for is my trips to CA where I can't bring a hi-cap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

INGOglock34 Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 The is probably hi-jacking the thread a little but if you had 10 round mags in your glock could you shoot single stack division? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EkuJustice Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 nope Single stack is a 1911 only game. The single stack sigs for example 220 do not qualify since not a 1911 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pro-Pain Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 Any recommendations in shooting production for which magazines to use? I have more than 6 of each, and wasn't sure which ones to compete with, what do others on this forum use? and why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chirpy Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 (edited) You can use any/all of them. You just need to make sure you don't load more than 10 rounds! Or, if you don't trust yourself, just use the 10 rounders. JMHOFWIW Richard Edited February 12, 2011 by chirpy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham Smith Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 You can use one 17 round mag as the first. You can put 11 rounds in the first mag and chamber one at Make Ready, that gives you the legal one in the chamber and 10 in the mag. The only time to not do this is when you are starting with a mag on the table or any other case where you start with the mag not in the gun. Some people like to use 10 rounders because there is no chance you can accidentally load more. Others think that the 17's feed rounds better.

Pro-Pain Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 haha I did search, and didn't find anything, but I typed in glock mags, not just mags. You, sir, are my friend for finding it :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calmwater Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 Either will do fine, but the spring play in the high caps makes it just a touch easier to seat the mag than seating a full ten rounder. Besides I KNOW the high caps you have are good quality..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
