Glock 19 PMAGS

N4sir · Dec 20, 2019

Anybody use or have used Magpul PMAGS in their Glock 19?
The other day I was at the Sportsman's Warehouse and saw them for like half the cost of Glock mags. Just wondering how well they worked and their longevity.

I’ve used them a lot. Had minor issues when they started getting dirty. I use them for range use only.

I have a few PMAGS for my 17, it works fine for when Im at the range but I dont trust them enough for EDC.

I have 10 that have remained constantly loaded in my car for 2 plus years. I use them at the range and have never had had an issue with them and they have never been cleaned.

There's a lot of reviews of them out there. The reviews seems to be somewhat mixed, although you have to consider that there were issues with the first generation of mags that has, since, been corrected. So, it can be hard to tell which reviews were for the bad mags.

I have some in my stash. I haven't used them but they certainly seem well made.

I find the PMags for my Glock 19 to be harder to load. Rounds #14 & #15 are a bitch to get in there. The buttplate on a PMag is noticeably thicker. For concealed carry, that might matter to you.

I have a few and have never had any issues

i own three of them, i have noticed when unloading them after they have been loaded foa a couple of months, sometimes the cartriges jam in the tube. tapping on a hard surface will jar them free. at the range i have not had problems with them, probably due to the recoil constantly

jarring the rounds loose

. for carry purposes, i would recommend sticking with the stel lined glock mags (they also have a slimmer butt plate), and using the magpuls for range use.

They work well for me. The thicker base pads help if you have a magwell

Merry Christmas
I've used the pmags in my Glock 17. Noticed they are not as rugged as OEM mags . Great for range use but I'll stick with my glock mags for EDC.

for the 10 dollars difference go with the real deal.

I'm using the 20 rounders in my Sub-2000 with no problems. I'm going to order some of the 27 rounders when I find some more in stock. Haven't tried the shorter ones, but I would be surprised if they were a problem.

I've been periodically buying factory Gen 4 and 5 magazines for $15-16 each. I don't see a reason to buy Magpul mags.

I bought a few specifically to use for USPSA dry fire. Dummy rounds only in the p mags and didn't care about dropping/kicking them around on the garage floor during drills.

I guess they are okay, but rounds consistently pop out when they hit the floor. They don't have metal feed lips like the OEM mags. I'm sure they flex and spread on impact which leads to the issue.

This is probably not a big deal and I'm sure they work fine for most purposes. I completely agree with those who recommend simply buying OEM when you see them on sale vs. the p mags.
