b1gcountry Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 No steel insert, but it doesn't seem to affect the function. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosiershooter Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 No steel insert to me is the selling point. Steel bends out of tolerance. With solid polymer it's either good or busted. No gray area really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

njl Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 It's rare, but it happens. I had one or two G19 FML mags where the liner (which joins at the rear) started separating from the polymer body. The result was that rounds could be fed in, but they'd hang up on the liner and not feed out. I sent them to Glock, and got new ones in exchange. I bought one G17 PMAG several weeks ago just to test. No problems so far...but I'm not a fan of their lack of witness holes and the floor plate has a disconcerting amount of fore/aft play in it. I have enough original mags for all my Glocks, that unless/until they start making G42 and G43 mags, I really have no need for aftermarket Glock mags. I'd still love to see them make M1 carbine mags. Again, I have plenty, but they're a mix of ~70 year old USGI and more recent Asian manufacture of unknown quality. I'm not holding my breath though...I suspect the M1 carbine is a pretty small market with no chance of .gov/.mil contracts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCAR Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 I want to try the Magpul mags, but I just don't see the need to switch from the high quality Glock factory mags that have never failed me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b1gcountry Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 I picked up enough so I could shoot an entire match without loading mags. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathanb Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 So the one plus with these is if your gun is close to the weight limit you could run these mags because they are substantially lighter. I don't know if that's been mentioned. I was worried about them dropping free but so far I haven't had issues with mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dannybot Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 Are the Pro Mags any good? I saw some at Gander today same price I paid for the Magpuls... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sleddog30 Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 Got 2 from my LGS for less the 16.00 each including tax. I've run about 250 rounds thru each one. No issues or problems to this point. The lack of a metal liner or witnesses holes, for me, is not an issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey, man! I knew you were alright. Even at intervals of 2, or even 5 would be better than nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NPSS Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 I have 2 recent ones that are 100%. Buying more. If you can't see the utility in a 16$ glock mag with a ez of base plate, idk bro. I like to show up to the range and not have to spend time loading magazines. Half price magazines make that way easier. Also products and versions of products have bugs to work out. Thats why I waited on the Gen4 guns and I waited on these mags. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HJGFDSA Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 (edited) Ill probably try some. They're almost 2 for 1. casesam.co.uk ourcase.co.uk Edited November 1, 2015 by HJGFDSA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pxm142 Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 I noticed that when these are dropped with rounds in them, they tend to kick the top round out of the mag. Not a huge deal, but odd nonetheless. Otherwise they work fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gunther Posted November 7, 2015 Share Posted November 7, 2015 I think they are planning on making .40's, later on down the road. 140mm mags for $21.95 an no need for $30-$40 base pads!

Deadcoyote Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 First off Gunther I am definitely gonna buy some of those! RE: pmags I bought 5 for $60 two months ago and have used them in production matches with no issues. The witness holes (lack of) are a pain in the ass as I've had to kick roundabout a couple of times to make sure I only had 10 rounds in the mags. Still work good for cheap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
