Wow. That's a good price point; cheaper than OEM. I can't help but wonder if they will eventually do a 33rder now that Magpul has done this. Looks like this is just the beginning.

[greenlineaz]

This is almost sending me into selling my M&P40. Locally I can only find OEM mags for it that are over 40 dollars. Interesting to see the street price on these new mags, and looking at it now, makes perfect sense for them to bring this to market. Win/win for everybody involved.

If you're talking about standard 15 round M&P40 mags, I just get all my ... well most of my mags from 44mag.

Just picked up some M&P Mags for $24.99

That's a great price. Hopefully they will start making them for the G-22 and G-21 soon.

nice ! i just got a 5 pack of OEM g17 mags for $100 shipped but they're usually around $25-30 + shipping. Progress!

[Dstrbdmedic167]

Yea I'll be getting some of these!

[UWone77]

Seems like just yesterday you couldn't get or find a M&P9 magazine to save your life. And if you did, people were charging $60-90 per. Reminded me of the AWB and trying to buy Glock 19 and 17 mags.

it does, those mags were like gold, i remember..now there less then they were before the "PANIC"..lol


Id be interested in trying out some of these mapul glock mags...why not..

[JHoward]

I've got tons of G17 mags. I want a solid looking +5 mag.

[UWone77]

Fixed the embedded video on the original post.

$15.95 for a Glock 17 magazine is fantastic. Can never have enough G17 mags, especially when they'll be $11-13 street price. I'm hoping that the M&P Platform is next.

The pain is real .... I tried reading them. Gave up and called a PD down in MD to get things unconfuzzeled.

Any ideas when you/Stick might possibly get your hands on a set?

[Eric]

This has the potential to open up an entirely new market for Magpul. It will be interesting to see what's next. Hopefully they overcame the swelling the original Glock mags experienced without the metal liner, which prevented them from dropping free.

to be honest i never wanted a Glock but i mite reconsider if dose mags are very good and if they make any in for the g19 in the future

just use G17 mags in it. A g19 will come with three factory mags. That's what i do with my g19.


I remember watching people pay $250 for a factory glock 33 round mag. I was like............... uh no. I try to buy one here and there now. IF that craziness ever happens again, ill sell em all day long for $200+ if people are willing to pay that. completely impractical mag but fun to have.

[Thompson]

For conceal carry though?

Why would you have a Glock 19 with zero 19 magazines? I think the point is as long as you have 1 G19 magazines, the rest can be G17 mags.

You carry with the flush mag. If you have to reload, concealability shouldn't really be an important consideration anymore.

I am sure Magpul will release a G19 mag, but I don't understand everyone clamoring for them as if only G19 can be put in a Glock 19.

[MonkeyBomb]

I will have to go on a magazine run this year. Unfortunately I have to buy out of state and bring them back. I can own them just can't buy them in state. LOL, I will have both saddle bags on the bike full of AR and pistol mags .

I never insinuated that only Glock 19 mags can be put in a Glock 19 (and frankly, I don't think any did for that matter). It's like you said, if I'm going to carry a Glock 19 - I want to be carrying a loaded mag that's flush to the grip ~ otherwise I'd CC a Glock 17 (which I wouldn't).

If I have to reload - I've got WAY bigger problems .......

What Castillo is referring too is that Gen 4 Glocks come with 3 mags. 3 mags should be enough for concealed carry, the Magpul G17 mags would be for training.

Yep I realize that. I'm looking at it as these Magpul mags (possibly) being better than the OEM mags. It's kinda like for AR's, would you rather use a USGI or a PMAG (nothing against USGI, but if I had a choice I'd pick the PMAG)?

[UWone77]

Personally, I use USGI for duty, Pmags for training.

I've broken plenty of feed lips off of PMags. At least on USGI Mags, they just bend.

[Kopis]

No, i dont use the g17 mag in my g19 and i never said i had zero g19 mags. my g19 came with three factory mags. So i just use one of those in the g19 and carry my g17 mags as my spare.

thank you for explaining what i said. I thought it would be pretty obvious.

Im really not sure if magpul will release a g19 mag when i think about it. Since Gen4 guns come with 3, why buy specialty mags when you can just use g17 mags for range/spare mag? People who shoot competitively are usually shooting the g17 or g34 (which uses g17 mags) and we are the ones wearing out/breaking mags from dropping them on the range so much. Your average g19 guy already has three mags from the factory and isnt shooting them on a regular basis. Anyway, im sure magpul will do plenty of marget research.

I understand what you're saying but I've never had any issues with Glock OEM mags. I doubt the Magpul mags can be any better just a cheaper option.

I have some PMAGS and some Lancers, but use almost exclusively USGI mags with Magpul Ranger plates.

[toolboxluis00200]

i got like a bazillion USGI mags and maybe 10 p mags

[Thompson]

Ah ok, I see.


I doubt the Magpul mags can be any better just a cheaper option.
That was probably one of the biggest reasons for me.

[greenlineaz]

I bought the D&H Industries mags from BCM. I use one of those as the mag in my work rifle, and on my belt I carry a Magpul Gen 2 I have had for awhile. The rifle will not fit into the agency mandated vehicle lock with the PMAG inserted, but it will with the mil-spec magazine.

These are now shipping.

[SwissyJim]

I ordered a few to try out... better price for sure, but only if they work well

Once you get some rounds through them you should post a review in the members review section.

Is that a hex screw on the baseplate?

[Former11B]

Looked at my neighbors P....Mags.

First impressions...

- All plastic. Glock mags are steel lined.
- Plastic feed lips. Glock mags have steel feed lips.
- No capacity indicators on the back. Only a single small window on each side that shows when it's loaded to capacity (17). Glock has holes on the back to show exactly how many are loaded.
- Noticeably lighter. GL9 mag weighs 51 grams (1.80 ounces), Glock mag weighs 78 grams (2.75 ounces).
- No obvious indication that it's a 9mm mag. Assuming Magpul expands its line to other calibers (like .40 S&W), you'll need to mark your mags to keep them separate.

Neighbor wrote a review for Midway basically saying the same thing. Neither of us would carry these mags. I don't carry a G17 anyway, & carry a 19 daily, but you get the point. These will be practice/competition mags only.

For the cost, I'll stick with OE Glock mags

On FB, Magpul said they're doing a 15 rd version; same MSRP.

Well, you get what you pay for I suppose.

Although, I would like to see a comparison between this and ETS's version. They seem practically the same, except one is translucent obviously.

[UWone77]

No, it's not a screw, just a notch keeping the base plate on.

11B, you're spot on. The way I look at it, the price point is much lower, most of my Glock Mags have been $20-25 and these can be had for less than $15. I'm sure with long term testing we'll see if these are up to snuff. I'm sure if they are like the PMags, they'll be fine, but for now, they won't replace my duty factory Glock Mags.

From Magpul:


Now Shipping--Again--The PMAG17 GL9.

We have now shipped replacement bodies for the entire first run of PMAG17 GL9 magazines to our dealers and distributors. Within the next few days, everyone who purchased PMAG17 GL9 magazines from the initial run should be receiving their replacement bodies, either delivered directly to the purchaser in the case of those who purchased from Brownells, Midway, DSG, Aim Surplus, or other online retailers, or delivered to your local gun store, where you may trade the old bodies for new, in the case of an over-the-counter sale. If anyone who purchased at a brick and mortar store is unable to return to the purchase location, please contact customer service and alternate arrangements will be made.

This also marks the kickoff of full production of the magazine as originally intended, and the corrected PMAG17 GL9 will begin shipping again to dealers and distributors. All magazine bodies with a date code of 5/15 and later are the corrected bodies, and will work flawlessly with G34, G17, G17L, G19, and G26 pistols with none of the ammunition sensitivities exhibited in the first run. We thank everyone for their patience with this product launch, and we appreciate your continued business.

[Dstrbdmedic167]
