Magpul is going to make GLOCK 17 magazines

LuckyDucky · Jan 16, 2015

MSRP will be $15.95 which means street price could be $10-12.

This is like a dream come true for me.

Glock used to make all plastic mags. I hope these are better.

I'd be more impressed if they made 140mm or 170mm mags. Glock mags are good.

Great idea magpul!

Disposable magazines?

Interesting decision by Magpul from a purely business perspective. Curious to see how it plays out.

I heard they aren't planning on making individual parts. Designed to be a throwaway. And they don't make base-pads for them yet...

on a thread somewhere else a magpul rep implied that they would be. I'll see if i can dig it up.

Cool...I guess? $25 Glock mags that last forever have been fine so far. I guess $12 mags would be better if they work. Like someone said above, I'm a little leery of a completely plastic mag. Glock learned that lesson. Maybe the design/technology is better. Obviously they work fine in AR's.

Either way, anybody that can afford to shoot enough to compete can afford to buy as many OEM glock mags as they want. I don't really see this making a difference to anyone, but I guess it's nice to save $10.
