FillYerHands Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 I have a Gen2 G17 that I have had for 25 years, and I have shot it in USPSA Production for 10 years. I have decided to move to Limited Minor, so I am looking at adding an inexpensive magwell. I tried the Cytac polymer version, but every match I shot it in, it ended up either constraining mag inserts, or coming totally off, or both. Yes, I installed it per the online videos. Note, I am not looking to add a $100 magwell, I want one $30 or under. So, O sages, what do you recommend? * Note, since I shot Production for a long time, and regular "Combat pistol" matches before that, I am willing to do without a magwell if that's the conclusion.

bowenbuilt Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 Magpul makes one, while not as large as some of the more expensive models it beats not having one at all and you won't knock it off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aircooled6racer Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 Hello: If you are going to shoot limited minor you will only be doing one reload per stage. Get some +5/6 base pads for your magazines and have fun. I am shooting a Gen 2 G17 in Carry Optics and can start with 23 +1 so again only one reload. The best Magwell I have used for a Glock is the Dawson but they are more than $30. As they say "Buy once, cry once". Thanks, Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I spoke to the Tech Service fellow at Magpul and he said it was designed for Gen3, and the Gen2 is actually different, and they would not guarantee it for that model. But if I don't see anything in the next while, I may go with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW I do have +2 extenders on there now, but the bigger ones are enticing. Edited February 1, 2019 by FillYerHands Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

9x45 Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 (edited) I've used the Prezine for the last 25 years. Used to be $12, they are now $21. https://www.brownells.com/handgun-parts/grip-parts/grips/grip-adapter-magwell-for-glock--prod20944.aspx Edited February 11, 2019 by 9x45 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
