After one small hiccup there was an issue with the first production run that caused issues in smaller framed Glocks , Magpul Glock PMAGS have been shipping in quantity across the nation.
More on that below. Two were from the first run of faulty magazines and had been opened by the shop. Magpul squashed the reliability issue these mags suffered by sending out replacement bodies to all that received the first run.
The shop had replaced the bodies and put them back on the shelf. Magpul has plans to release a model for the Glock 19 in the fall. The idea of building up a nice stack of mags, if only for training use, is pretty universally appealing.
A common complaint with the factory mags which come with the gun is how tough it is to remove the floor plate. Magpul has taken the proven dovetail design from their rifle mags and downsized it for the pistol.

Just dirt. I've seen very old G17 mags non FML that were bowed so extensively that they had to be stripped out of the pistol with effort. I have had just one go south on me, years ago. It had caught a rock right on one of the feed lips, and would not feed correctly after that. I used a boot heel as Mr.
