New gen 4 glock mags

[BrocDowns]

I got 4 new 22/35 mags on a trade Glock brand, I noticed that they don't have the metal showing on the mag catch side, still metal lined like all glock mags but not where the catch is. In the factory config they drop fine, throw some basepads on them I notice they are a lot more snug fit that the other gen4 mags I have and won't drop free when fully loaded (not that we ever really do that in a match) they seem to work fine after a round is out of them and the slide is closed. Any information on why they would change a great thing they had or is that just the Glock way to take something perfectly fine and dick with it for NO reason. Shouldn't be an issue come match or practice time but it's kind of aggravating

I think it had something to do with the Military. I have a bunch of them with metal and no metal and they both work fine.. I have Armor All wipes and wipe the magazines and inside magwell before a match and they slide out nice..

Now I never thought if that, I know they make some stuff called quick draw for holsters to make the gun come out easier, that might work well also, juat be afraid I'd get it on my hands a little though
