TexasTan Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 If you are running the 21rd magpul glock mags will you give the rest of us a report on reliability? How does it compare to a glock w/ taran extension or zev extention? Is the total length 140 mm or could you add the GL-L plate which adds 1/4” in length?

limitedscott Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 I've only been using them for about a month now but I haven't had any issues. I prefer the feel of a Glock mag with a Taran extension. There's a little more weight to it, personal preference. I also have had some situations where the extra 2 rounds with the Taran has eliminated the need for a reload. That being said, for the price I don't think that you can go wrong. They're reliable (so far), relatively easy to load to capacity, easy to disassemble for cleaning, and most of all CHEAP. Only time will tell for long term durability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Czechnology Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 No reliability issues so far here with a Gen 3 Glock 34. Locks back on empty and drops free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soterik Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 +1 to what limitedscott said they are reliable, function perfectly and inexpensive. If they held 2 more rounds they would be the only ones I use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alaskapopo Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 Been using them in my PCC and in my Glock 17 and 31 with no issues at all. They hold less rounds than the Taran extensions but are way more affordable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexasTan Posted April 15, 2017 Author Share Posted April 15, 2017 I appreciate everyone's feedback. I bought several from brownells who came in cheapest with coupon code LDD. If you use that code and spend over 100$ you get 10$ off and free shipping. So that means 6 (21rd) magpul glock mags for 93$! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexasTan Posted April 29, 2017 Author Share Posted April 29, 2017 After a couple of range trips I am sad to report that these magazines won't reliably lock back after the last round or drop free in my glock 34. I was hoping this would be an economical option for three gun. Does anyone have a maintenance tip on how to make these mags lock back and drop free? Otherwise they are going back to brownells and i'll be buying factory mags and aftermarket extensions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SinistralRifleman Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 Mine drop free and lock back fine. I did once have the follower stick in one of the 4 I use, but not during a stage. I couldn't replicate it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noah Gladstone Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 I have use mine for several 3 Gun matches and it has been 100% reliable in a Glock 34. I will be buying more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
