Nice video. I have used the Magpul mags in my 19X for the past year. Honestly they work great and have had zero problems. I use them at the range all the time. I do have Glock mags loaded for home duty, but at this point I would trust the Magpuls just the same. My opinion is the Magpul is a very good alternative. Happy shooting.
Springs wear out with repeated use. They may take a set while loaded, but it is the repeated compression and release that wear the springs out.@@u2fkeys665
@TexasTeaHTX no its not I took mines to the range and the one the magazine that was always loaded kept jamming the last 2 rounds. The other 2 magazines worked just fine.
I’ve been running them for awhile now (1500+ rds) and I haven’t had not one failure with the MagPul GL9 mags,also I’m running the 21 rounders in my G45 Gen5. So yes I’d trust my life with them.
@@HermitagePrepper how hard do you train with them because everyone I know who has them and uses them hard they all say they are shit. And I despise pcc’s so I don’t own any .
@@Dcm193 i shoot about once a month with the glocks and about twice a year with the scorpion. No jams after about 3k rounds using only magpul. Pcc is my home defense.
Good video. Mags seems to work just fine. I don't have a Glock, but if I were to carry, I would also go with the Glock mags and use the others for practice. Take care.
Magpul makes a solid product. I have their mags for my AR, AK, Sig P320, 308 bolt action and their 17 and 21 rd mags in my Glock 47 (and in my Henry Homesteader which has a Glock mag well). All have been totally reliable and more affordable than the factory option, especially with the Sig mags which are notoriously expensive.
when you buy a PSA dagger, it comes with Pmags, I would think PSA did research on the quality of the mags. I have standard Glock and Magpul and had no issues.
Only issue I ever had was with using some steel case ammo. It does not slide well against the inside of the plastic mag. It had some issues binding up inside mag. With the metal lined Glock mag no issues using steel case.
I have shot a few thousend rounds with my pcc and had not a single malfunction with the Magpul mags. The mags dont like steel case ammo. The paint of the casings will make the mags sticky and can proce failures to feed.
I noticed this too with covid era winchester steel case, they just wanted to go tip up whenever I loaded them. I had issues with the same steel case and oem mags where I couldn't use the slide release to chamber them, had to slingshot it
I didn't notice they were all polymer til you pointed that out. I happened to have one sitting on my desk when you mentioned that and I looked at it like "holy shit, no wonder people complain". I only bought it because they were out of Glock mags at the store, but I wouldn't buy another. Can't put a price on reliability when it comes to your life.
@@Spidermonkey2a yeah that’s literally what the shop told me haha. I’d rather just buy Glock official magazines, it’s like 10 bucks more but it’s worth it. On eBay they have them at reasonable prices with no shipping.
Two for the price of one Glock mag? Yeah I’ll take that, for every Glock mag I own I have two pmags. So for $50 I get three mags when I decide to buy. Starting to have a nice little collection
Only factory OEM magazines should be used in Glock pistols. The PMAGS are okay for target shooting, they are never worthy of self defense use. The Shield Arms mags are absolute garbage. If people want fifteen rounds, carry a G19. James Yeager was right. RIP James.
They're alright just ugly and no witness marks. They also do NOT load with the glock speedloaders, they will jam up and bullets will go tip up if you try to use it. Handloading no problem. There's some kind of weird geometry with the follower but to be fair I've never had any malfunctions. I kind of just dislike them and would rather trade my stock in for more oem mags
Glocks are ugly in the first place. That's one of the reason why I carry mine. 1. They are reliable 2. They're already ugly so I don't have to worry scratching them up making them uglier.
Glock is a utilitarian design. It wasn't made to be pretty, it just works. The slide still looks like the billet it was milled out of. But I like the iconic look. Hi Point is ugly.
@@Spidermonkey2a only for a reload with slide locked back tho. Cuz it makes the slide hard to move if u have to rack it. But if your slide is locked back you can slap the pmag with 16 rounds in it . And it will work fine.

Agreed. Very much appreciated
I don't leave mines loaded any more they do strain the spring so I quit doing that

@@u2fkeys665That’s a myth sir. Loading mags to capacity doesn’t wear out the spring. Use does however.

Do you keep them loaded constantly and to capacity ? I’m just curious ! Before I buy some I want to know ! Thanks for you help with this
Well .. I sure as hell trust my P-Mags with my AR15.. So yes
I trust them in my Glock.
Magpul mags are significantly cheaper and they are a reputable company. Ive started to stock up
Their AK mags are shit and so are these . Look up regular guy training llc
@@Dcm193 i have 0 problems with their glock or scorpion mags

I seen a Glock pmag go 5000k + rounds with not one issue. Still looks new
Cap
Found the guy who doesn't actually shoot lol.
@@Masta_E it sure is nice when you find someone who knows all about you when you have never meet.
I’ve came across some really cheap and haven’t had issues. I keep a few loaded in different spots around the house.
They seem to be trustworthy

Definitely agree with you there. Much appreciated. Take care as well.
I have the 27 rounder and 17 rounder for my Glock 19! No issues! Grab them now while there still $20 cheap!
DONT BUY PRO MAGS
Magpul makes a solid product. I have their mags for my AR, AK, Sig P320, 308 bolt action and their 17 and 21 rd mags in my Glock 47 (and in my Henry Homesteader which has a Glock mag well).

Agreed

Its everyone's own money but, I think it is odd how folks say I'll use the PMAGS for everything but, not for CCW.
Only issue I ever had was with using some steel case ammo. It does not slide well against the inside of the plastic mag. It had some issues binding up inside mag. With the metal lined Glock mag no issues using steel case.
Ahhhhh makes sense.
I had the same issue.. steel case and especially when the Pmags get dirty they are pretty useless. The brass worked fine :)
I have a few 27 rd PMAGS no issues at all , also good video
Much appreciated
Pmags are great... I noticed quite a few of your shells ejected right at your face with that glock, is that still a problem that glock has?
Only Gen 3s eject to the face u need a 4473 ejector if you own a Gen 3! they fixed the ejection problem with the gen4-5
I have a LFA Falcon 9Xc that came with Magpuls. They keep misfeeding. I then used Glock magazines and it runs flawlessly.

I exclusively use Magpul Glock mags the only caveat is don't use steelcase ammo in them. other than that they are 100% reliable with brass ammunition
I can confirm this. Ran a pmag in a nak9 filled with steelcase and had feeding issues. Brass tho, good to go.
Agree, steel case sucks through them. I can't even figure out why! Bothers me
@@onseki1774I ran into the same issues with steel cases ammo. Brass runs like a champ.
Sig steel case runs fine in mine.
Lacquered brown bear worked fine in mine.
P-mags for the range, glock mags for the streets
Wouldn’t hurt to have the pmags , just in case!🙏🏻🤙🏻🇺🇸
Completely agree. They're impressive for the price for sure.
@@Spidermonkey2a Yes Sir 🙏🏻🇺🇸🤙🏻
Highly made In America 🇺🇸

The base pads do help strip out a stuck mag though…
U should try the 27rd gl9 🔥
Only issue I’ve had, is that they don’t slide out of the magwell when empty.
Very true
In my experience over time the feed lips break off. It's all polymer and no steel. Glock mags are far superior. But more expensive.
Two for the price of one Glock mag? Yeah I’ll take that, for every Glock mag I own I have two pmags. So for $50 I get three mags when I decide to buy. Starting to have a nice little collection

Yes iam going to try it also they are lighter
I bought 10 of them for $100 oem mags are never that cheap unless they are used… mine seem to hold up
Glad to hear it!
I hate magpul Glock mags horrible experience with them. Work great for ar15 and ak47 but not my glocks

I didnt
@@Spidermonkey2a only for a reload with slide locked back tho. Cuz it makes the slide hard to move if u have to rack it. But if your slide is locked back you can slap the pmag with 16 rounds in it . And it will work fine.
Very interesting. Thanks for letting me know
@@Spidermonkey2ano prob..and yeah im shocked more people don't know u can do it. Someone told me and i didn't believe it till u tried it ..
Dam ive had problems with most of them ive had😢
I feel like they're hit and miss
Got abunch of the 21 rounder thinking would not need to buy magazine extensions, great in theory when they work
Unreliable In hot weather!
Is it the condensation?
